Reinvent the PHP blog?

I am an experienced web developer new to the php language.

I want to add a blog to my church website.

Are there already plenty of GOOD php 4/5 blogs already out there so I don't waste precious time?


One feature I would like to see is for certain pre-defined keywords located in an xml file to automatically appear as links in blog posts. The other feature needs to be assigning a user base of say 5-20 staff members to be the posters, rather than 1 lone blogger or whatever, yet not giving access to public posting.

Other than that I would just want basic blog with month archives etc.

I know of blogger.com for easy blogging but I don't think they have the features I mentioned.

WordPress may be of interest, although I'm not sure if it has the keyword linking, but there are lots of plugins that may add that functionality..

Wow! I took a couple minute peek at WordPress. My first impression is NICE! Post by email especcially, that way non-techie pastors can post.

Thank you.
