The question that comes to mind from this thread is, "If I want to
create content for both wikis and blogs, what's the best software to use
that won't lose vital features or functions in either environment?"
Also assuming you mean authoring these as separate projects, not just
one piece of content being repurposed in both places.
Just a thought.

I'm not asking about wikis or blogs...I'm asking, if a company or a
department invested in the setup of Word Press, are they going to be
excluded from working in one of the mediums or the other....does the
tool just not have a particular feature that is vital to one environment
and not the other.
