I couldn’t agree more. I wonder if there is any documentation on how to create a system comparable to Word Press (blog archive, recent posts, blog images, etc.) in Drupal without having to spend hours on end seeking out mods, installing, experimenting, uninstalling, and back again…

— Regarding Drupal vs Wordpress
I’ve just started using Wordpress for one simple site, as a hosted application offering from my ISP. They have provided WP as “one click” option in subdomain creation settings. To pitty they didn’t enable more freedom in customization of their hosted WP offering. I reckon many would find such “limited” Wordpress adequate.

I should have used "anyway". Thanks for pointing this out! According to this artice (http://www.protrainco.com/info/essays/usage.htm#a) and others, “anyways” is incorrect.

Once you understand it, nodes make sense. While developing sites for different clients, I made "snapshots" which help me start the customization at various stages. --- I have one offtopic thing to ask you: Do you happen to know why do more and more native English speakers use "s" in the word "anyway"? "Is there any way to avoid using the plural form?" "Is there any linguistic logic left in native English speakers?" To my knowledge, "any" is followed by a singular noun.
