    movable type is ok. There is a ton of other blog packages out there, but so many of them can be exploited. You'll want to constantly make sure you're up to date.

        Hard to beat Wordpress as far as the number of available plugins. Have you tried the cache module?

        You can also run blogs on Drupal but it's also quite a hog.

                            Blogs Organizer isn't a resource hog...

                            Besides that I'd recommend expression engine and textpattern (free).

                              a friend of mine runs busy celebrity gossip blog and she had lots of problems with WP. She switched to drupal and seems to be very happy. I was looking to build a network of about 20 WP blogs myself but seeing how people have troubles and then super high demand on system resources and all that shit... I'm reconsidering my original plans

                                    You can tune and optimize wordpress in many ways, maybe you should try that first before moving to another software package.

                                    Blog Submitter, submit to 15 blog dirs with 1 form.

                                        Yep and I've seen a lot people say that when a site posted there goes down. Little do they know it's not wordpress. It's the fact that the submitter/site owner thought his site could be on the digg front page when he only pays 5 bucks a month for unlimited hosting.
