Lets start with another history. I was using blogger.com for about 10 months then I switched to my own blog at my free server. I must say that I was am happy with it. Yeah.. coming to the point, as I said I first used blogger (repeat!) in which I just used a theme and some plugins. But when I come to know about blog scripts (so late!) which can be installed on any server with the support of PHP & MySQL I thought I should try it. So I started searcing for free blog scripts.. there are lot of them.. WordPress (heard them every where) & B2Evolution were best among them (I think so?). I chose WordPress because I saw WordPres, WordPress, WordPress… everywhere!  So downloaded and installed it successfully on my test folder. Installation was quick, I never thought it would be so simple. You just have to enter database details and blog name and stuff. Thats it! you are taken to your administrative dashboard. Somehow I couldnt accept it, I expected more!  (may be due to those sites which praise too much of wordpress stuff). I didn’t tried installing any plugin though (thats where I got wrong!). But I thought I should try B2Evolution before getting involved in WordPress -what if I liked it more than this?

So I installed B2Evo in ma site, same as WP and I was taken to its admin dashboard. Wow! hundreds of options! and a neat cool admin interface too. B2Evo took me by its first impression!! It was like too much for me.. It took more than an hour to configure everything to set my blog up, well it was worth it was like creating my system with my own configurations. I liked the multi-blogging system. i.e, you can add more blogs to your site within one interface! That was a cool addition comparing to WP.  So I could post my links in a ‘Link-Blog’ photos in a ‘Photo-blog’. I completely forgot WP! So I started hunting for plugins in B2Evo there where hundreds of them too.. I choose some featured stuff. Moved to themes category, shame! site contains only few of them and no creative / tech stuff! I tried googling but to my disappointment there where not many good stuff..  only some basic things which where converted from WP themes. So I choose one from the B2Evo site, not bad one, and edited it to my choices. I couldn’t leave B2Evo just because there is not much themes.. I liked B2Evo. So I started blogging..

One fine day I thought of my old WP! and started exploring it once again, but this time I looked into plugin collection & theme collection.. I couldnt bilieve my eyes! I never thought there would be this much collection of them..  Themes! they are not just themes.. they contain more editable options too.. I found all those B2Evo options in the forms of plugins or themes.. ok.. great stuff.. but I wanted to check their forum for support quality, well I would have never bilieved if I didn’t saw it.. there are a million people to clear your doubts.

So lets conclude.. am now adicted to WP, my ‘old’(!?) B2Evo blog is there too.. but I just want to post in WP than in B2Evo, because of the following reasons :

1. WP is simple-userfriendly than B2Evo
2. WP loads quickly than B2Evo
3. Adding or editing posts in WP is smart and quick than B2Evo
4. The “tags” & “catogory” are well managed in WP than B2Evo
5. WP is always updated and reliable, B2Evo lacks here
6. WP have much more popularity than B2Evo
7. More themes & plugin collection available for WP than B2Evo
8. Well what are you waiting to hear?  I hv no choice now!

Here are some other interesting points :

• If you want to get more spam messages try WP – (Anti-Spam meassures are there too)
• If you want your site to be more public try WP they are more SEO friendly
• If you want to include 2 or more blogs in your single site and ready to satisfy with the limitted number of themes you can  choose B2Evo
• If you dont know whats the difference between B2Evo and WP by now choose WP
• And finally if you dont understand what these all WP, BP, LP stuff.. Just skip to the next post
