About:
phpWebLog is a Web-based news management system written in PHP. It uses a MySQL database. All the content, including multiple design layouts, themes, and languages can be edited/deleted through a user-friendly administration mode. It supports the importing and exporting of headlines from other sites via Netscape's RSS/RDF format. It also supports story moderation, an expandable links manager, threaded comments, and it allows site owners to expand their site by creating static pages from the administration page.

[»] Explanation the name
by rbb - Oct 9th 2000 12:58:26

The name is quite logic actually.

The part of the name that is confusing you must be the "weblog" part. Blogger has a pretty good explanation of the term weblog: "A weblog is a web page made up of usually short, frequently updated posts that are arranged chronologically -- like a what's new page or a journal. The content and purposes of blogs varies greatly -- from links and commentary about other web sites, to news about a company/person/idea, to diaries, photos, poetry, mini-essays, project updates, even fiction. Many weblogs are personal, "what's on my mind" type musings. Others are collaborative efforts based on a specific topic or area of mutual interest. Some weblogs are for play. Some are for work. Some are both."

[»] misleading name

Shouldn't phpWebLog be some sort of log file analysis tool? Seems like a strange name for a database driven web site backend, but maybe I'm missing something.
