It wasn't bad, but the comment spam was horrible, and I couldn't seem to stop it (I still get hits on the WP comment page that no longer exists on my site :-). So I went back to MT just because I was more familiar with it. It's nice really. Very customizable, lots of plugins available. The one annoyance is not being able to pick multiple categories for a post, but there are plugins for that too. Movalog.com is a good place to start reading. My buddy Tony just started using WordPress, so I'll ask him how that's going. Anyway, I like it, but I don't use it for much special, just your every day blog type stuff. But nearly 800 posts and 400 comments, it's still holding up all right... I tried WordPress for a little while when transitioning to a new host.
