LightBlog is a "Web 2.0" blogging platform written in PHP. It uses SQLite file databases, so it's a good choice for those who don't have access to centralized SQL databases such as MySQL or PostgreSQL.

The team places a very high emphasis on design and ease-of-use in LightBlog. All themes and pages are custom-designed by our resident designer, soren121, and most forms and actions use asynchronous jQuery AJAX calls to send and receive data from the backend without reloading the page for a pleasant, fluid interface.

Feel free to download the latest code from our Subversion repository, but be forewarned that trunk code is not always stable, and you may encounter bugs. The LightBlog team holds no responsibility for any problems you may encounter or issues that arise when using trunk code.

If stability is key, wait for a release. ;-)

Status

November 15: I'm really sorry, with school and other things I haven't had time to work on Lighty. Thanksgiving holidays are coming up in a couple weeks here in the US, so at least a beta of 0.9.2 should be out by then.

October 30: WOOT! First real code commit in 3 months! Should have 0.9.2 cleaned up and out of alpha by November 8.
