A test install of WordPress
It took me 4 minutes to install a working WordPress system at In The Valley
Add another 2 minutes to configure the permanlinks to use Clear URIs. The default entry became http://www.inthevalley.net/word/archives/2004/05/15/afraid/ when it was previously http://www.inthevalley.net/word/index.php?p=1
That’s not a bad system. Of course per wordpress.org, you can also try WordPress out live on OpenSourceCMS.com
Textpattern took about the same amount of time to install, offers more flexibility on templates, but is still in development . In my opinion, if Dean does licensing right, TXP will gain a lot of territory on MovableType and WordPress.
One thing that Textpattern and Wordpress have in common is that they are both PHP/MySQL publishing systems that use live data. No static pages are created by the system.
