NBR: Anyone use wordpress?

in Toddlers: 12 - 24 Months

I develop websites with Dreamweaver right now. One of my clients might be interested in started a blog type site with information on their specialty. I have heard that wordpress is the place to do this so I can hand off some administrative control to them.

Is it hard to learn? If I have basic web developement/graphic design skills, how long do you think it would take me to learn it and create a basic site?

TIA!

    I think Wordpress is really easy to use but I created my blog using a template.  I'm not sure how involved it would be to create a custom layout using your own designs.  I tried to figure it out using various online tutorials but stuck with the free template for now.

    I love using wordpress.  I have two blogs - one in blogger and one in wordpress, and the wordpress one is definitely my favorite.

    A bit more difficult than blogger to use, but still easy (your client will have no problems) and easier to personalize than blogger.

    We use word press and it was simple to learn.

    Monkeys should be able to handle wordpress- it's easy, and when you run into something you need help with, there is tons of support out there.

    CS5's DW version added CMS support for WP (and Drupal and Joomla), btw- syntax hints and suggestions. Likely worth the upgrade, if you are on an earlier version.

    Thanks! I need to upgrade anyway since I'm on a pretty old version here at home. At work I have CS5 but I have side jobs I need to keep up with. I need to get up to speed on all the latest CMS apps out there and start playing around.
