Recommendations Needed: Simple Multi-Blog CMS

[XSAXS]

Haven't blogged in several years, but I'm thinking about building a new niche blog network for 2014. Looking for simplicity and want to avoid bloated software.

Ideally it would be setup on a central hub with all the other domains powered off of it.

http://myhub.com <---- CMS running here and powering/managing all the blogs below.
http://niche1.com
http://niche2.com
http://niche3.com

Back in the day, BlogsOrganizer was pretty good. Ugly as fuck, but relatively simple to setup a lot of blogs fast. I'm sure it's wildly outdated and unusable now. (?)

CyberSEO looks pretty nice, but I hesitate to use Wordpress because it's way too bloated and cumbersome, IMO.

Fishing around for ideas.

Very fucking funny.

What do I look like, a programmer?

...just kidding.

get something custom made or go bloated wordpress which is overkill for simple blog.
