Potential WordPress competitor?

February 6, 2008

Admittedly, I’m intrigued by the buzzwords used by those describing Chyrp, who claim that it is “lightweight” and “quick” and “uncomplicated”.

Maxator was kind enough to point out the problem, but since I’ve been away from the real world over the [...]
