About myBlog and visitors’ privileges

There are plenty of blog scripts and platforms available free on the Internet (like wordpress, nucleus, b2evolution etc.) as well as some free blog hosting services (like blogger). It has now become very easy to make a separate blog section on your site, only a little theme development effort is required if you have an existing website and want to preserve its present style. In addition to specialized blog scripts, now it is almost customary to have blog features in other CMS (content management system) available today for free (like Drupal, Mamboo, Joomla, Geeklog, PHP-Nuke, Typos3, Xoops etc.) which claim to be CMS softwares primarily.

myBlog Structure
I have employed open source content management system (CMS) of Drupal Release Version 5, which is a bit older while Drupal’s latest release available is 6. You may visit official website of Drupal here for further information. The style theme is developed to match the already existing website design.
