Forget everything you think you know about WordPress…

And possibly what others have told you as well. The reality is that WordPress WAS originally developed to help its users maintain their blogs or online diaries. 5 years later there is an increasing number of folks using WordPress to develop entire websites. YES – you heard me – websites, not just blogs!
