... and Wordpress is better than both.
Back in January of this year I made the first call for votes in the annual Linux Journal magazine Readers' Choice Awards.
The results are now in and in what looks like a pretty close race Joomla came second.
Favorite Content Management System
WordPress (25%)
Honorable Mention
Joomla! (23%)
Drupal (19%)
No surprise that the blog publishing application WordPress once again wins the category Favorite Content Management System with 25% of the vote. In the Honorable Mention department, your same two favorite Web content managers, Joomla! and Drupal, are present only to flip in popularity. This year, Joomla! reached an impressive 23% to Drupal's 19%. Drupal got our vote—LinuxJournal.com runs on it.
Obviously any vote is subjective and in many ways has little substantive meaning but it's still nice to see.
