WordPress is a Web publishing system (a.k.a. content management system) written in PHP and utilizing a MySQL database. WordPress is used to manage frequently updated Web content, especially Weblogs. It is distributed under the GNU General Public License and is available without charge.

The name "Wordpress" was actually suggested by Christine, a friend of the lead developer Matt. WordPress is the official successor of b2\cafelog and has a thriving user and developer community. The current version of WordPress is 1.2 Mingus. WordPress versions are named after Jazz greats. WordPress currently supports one weblog or site per installation, but multiple installations are trivial. Upcoming versions will support multiple weblogs from one installation. WordPress is fully XHTML and CSS compliant. WordPress is currently in active development with a growing user base.
