Hi all.

I have a small amount of webspace on my student account that I'd like to put a blog on.

I'm looking for something very small and lightweight, in PHP or CGI/Perl, that doesn't need a database to operate. Maybe even something in a single script file, something like that.

Any suggestions?

cutenews?

Hi, thanks for the tip.

I'm trying out cutenews, but it seems buggy with php5, and it's not open source or being actively developed.

Anything else?

Thanks again.

wordpress, b2, greymatter.

wordpress, b2, and greymatter all use mysql databases, genius.

what kind of functionality are you looking for, exactly?

Hi, thanks for all the replies.

I'm just setting up a really simple work blog so I can track my progress. Before I just had a standalone HTML page that I was updating manually. I'd like to get away from that, but have it just as basic and simple.

EDIT: more details:

I don't need anything like comments, RSS, trackbacks, any of that. I'd just like something I can visit, type in an update, and publish to the page and have it take care of formatting, splitting into pages, etc.

i would try using blogger.com because im sure you can integrate it with your own site. they have a few options, although i haven't checked recently for updates.

Do you know how I would integrate it into my own site? I looked at their help section, and all I saw was a thing about how you can add your own domain name.
