A few days ago I purchased gentoo.org.au (no, don't bother looking, it doesn't point anywhere yet ).

I have been investigating various programs to help manage the webspace. Started off looking at various CMS programs:

• Joomla - can't say it grabbed me at all. The default setup is way too messy, and even after fidling with the seconds for 5 minutes couldn't improve it.
• Drupal - much cleaner interface, and default, this actually creates reasonably sexy pages without much effort.
• Geeklog - looked, moved on quickly.

However people in #gentoo-au have recommended that a CMS may be overkill and to try out a wiki. So it looks like I will be experimenting with phpwiki and mediawiki over the next few days.
