editingwhiz writes "Bloggers wanting to rise above the blogosphere noise, but not prepared to tackle the likes of Drupal, would do well to check out Thingamablog, a free, open source blogsite publishing package. Thingamablog is a standalone blogging application that makes authoring and publishing weblogs as simple as possible, according to the project team.
Unlike most blogging software packages, Thingamablog does not require its web-accessed files to reside on a cgi/php-enabled webserver, and doesn't need a MySQL database. According to the project's website, all that's needed to set up and manage a blog using Thingamablog is FTP, SFTP, or network access to a basic webserver."
