A favorite content management system (CMS) of mine – WordPress, has won the title of Overall Best Open Source CMS Award from the 2009 Open Source CMS Awards. This is no small feat! What this means for wordpress is that it is now considered a full featured CMS and not just a blogging system.
WordPress also recieved 2nd place in Best Open Source PHP CMS, ahead of a very established CMS, Joomla. Since it’s inception, WordPress has grown substantially from a lightweight Blogger like software, to a massive worldwide multi-language effort for a full CMS.
What I personally find it most useful for is 1 click installs, infinite extensibility and stunningly simple user interface. Clients have no issue with maintaining their site and even find the time to add functionality via widgets and plugins by themselves. WordPress truly reflects our mantra of “elegant and effective”. Good job to all creators and contributors!
