Joomla! vs WordPress

WordPress as a CMS

Are you using Joomla! as your CMS system? Are you having problems figuring out the admin area or making changes and not seeing anything change on the site? Joomla! is a powerfull software, but can be difficult to understand. 314media is powered by WordPress and is so stupid easy to update, I’m writing this paragraph from my iPhone. Just copy, slide to a new window, paste and update post! (If you understood that, bravo!)

From Slashdot:
An anonymous reader writes “PlayingWithWire profiles two open source tools for Web development, comparing Joomla! and WordPress through the lens of usability. The article has apparently upset a few people at the Joomla! forum, but it does bring up a good point. Many open source projects are developed by engineers for engineers — should they focus more on usability? PlayingWithWire makes a bold analogy: ‘If Joomla! is Linux, then WordPress is Mac OS X. WordPress might offer only 90% of the features of Joomla!, but in most cases WordPress is both easier to use and faster to get up and running.’” The article repeatedly stresses that blogging platform WordPress and CMS harness Joomla! occupy different levels of the content hierarchy. How fair is it to twit Joomla! on usability?
