Here on GEEK! WordPress is used, its a fantastic blogging program that, while a little complicated to install (if you don’t have Fantastico on the server), is very easy to maintain and is very stable.

You can also get Plugins for it that can add a huge variety of features, or make your own. 

If you want to get the current version of WordPress (v2.6.2) head over to www.wordpress.org or for more information on the new upcoming WordPress go to http://wordpress.org/development/

Ubuntu 8.10 to come soon, beta out now.

Doing a general internet browse, I have seen on the Ubuntu site that 8.10 is on the way. If you’re a Ubuntu Linux user, you may want to have a look at the beta which (according to their site) has a number of updates.

Take a look and report back on it.

(I am not an avid Linux user so probably wont try this myself, but if you want to try it out, why not leave a comment so other people can read your opinion.)
