CoMoblog is a community driven mobile orientated blogging application that allows you to blog to your website from any device that supports sending Emails. It essentially works as an email-to-blog gateway that supports rich document types such as HTML and Images
The CoMoblog project is a branch from the Easymoblog project. The original Easymoblog project was developed by Umberto Caldera and can be found at http://www.easymoblog.org
One of the major advantages of CoMoblogs design is that its modular. The Community can write Modules which any user can install to add extended functionality to their Blog.
Modules exist to add Calendars and RSS to the side menu bars while others exist to add such functionality as searching. The possibilities are endless.
All credit for the original project goes to Easymoblog and Umberto.

Poster blog is a software which allows you to create a blog without the need of a database: all you need is an hosting (even a free one) with PHP support, FTP access and you must be able to chmod files.
Posting is really easy, thanks to a nice web interface which makes no use of JavaScript, so you can use it also on old browsers or even textual ones. I wrote down a list of Poster powered blogs (really short, at the moment, but I hope it will grow soon).
Poster blog works on plain text files and doesnt require a database.
Main features:
- Posting, obviously :)
- Comments
- Trackbacks (recieve and send)
- Multiple authors. There are granular permissions to define exactly what an user can and cannot do
- Categories
- Permalinks for posts, comments, trackbacks, categories and also authors
- Modular and scriptable template. You can insert PHP code in the template, and that code will be executed on the fly. The template uses special entities (for example, is replaced with the title of the blog)
- RSS feed. Future versions will have also an Atom feed
Enhancements:
- The most important change is that the the spam filters were integrated into the core.
