Wordpress

Memeserver’s own site, and many of those developed to support Memeserver projects are built using Wordpress. A recent example is The Centre for School Design.

As an open source system, Wordpress is quite simply second-to-none. Memeserver has already installed, built and hacked around too many of these to mention here.
