Using serendipity on a blog/directory
 

Do any of you guys run serendipity for your blogs? I have been researching it lately and hear it is easy to use and offers alot of customization. I want ease of use, but I also don't want alot of clutter.

I will be using it for a hybrid blog/directory and I wasn't sure about the installation, compatibility with gossamer ect. Any help is appreciated|bow|

I use serendipty for my member's only blog, and blogspot for my public, traffic drawing blog. I don't know a lot about it, I don't customize it much, but it is pretty easy to use. It came with my godaddy hosting and the installation was very simple. Sorry I'm not terribly technical..|crazy|

I havent used serendipity but I did take a very close look at it before taking the trip to "the dark side" and moving to WP.

Since they use smarty tags, it does make design very flexible but makes adding to the system inflexable and I doubt that it would play nicely with other scripts unless they also were smarty based.

I have a 2k a day blog running with it. It has it's good and bad points like any other script. The template system is a little easier then WP but you have to upload the files via ftp unless there is an add on to work on them online that I haven't seen.
