PHPSlash
PHPSlash is a weblog system written in PHP. It was originally a port from the Perl to the PHP code of Slash-0.2 (the code that runs the popular slashdot web site). However, after development the PHPSlash code was changed into an entirely new system of PHP weblog coding.
Similar programs and projects include PHP-Nuke, Slash, PHPweblog, Thatware, Sips, and NewsPro. The idea behind these software packages is to provide webmasters with flexible template-driven websites that are easy to update. Most have features supporting document content management (See: Web content management system.) which allows non-technical authors to conveniently edit webpage content--not unlike Wikipedia.
