Free PHP Script: Maian Weblog
This was the first script I wrote that used a database. Back in the early days I didn`t have a clue what I was doing, but since then its evolved into a nice XHTML/CSS theme based system a la Wordpress. Its not meant to compete with that great and very popular software, its just my own interpretation of a blog system. Blogs are real popular, so have fun blogging!
