[TYPO3] Typo3 as blog tool

[Tyler Kraft]

Hi

Welcome to the list.

Timtab (and a few other extensions) work together to act as a very good 
blog for typo3 and is realtively easy to get going.  I've done 15 blogs 
(althouhg they aheva ll been rather tailored so are not conventinal blogs)

There is also a seperate newsgroup that you can use for timtab (but it 
will require the use of a newsreader).
