WordPress Wins Best Social Networking CMS...?
WordPress Wins Best Open Source Social Networking CMS: I was a judge on this panel.
Packt is pleased to reveal that WordPress is the first winner of the 2007 Open Source CMS Award, picking up the best Open Source Social Networking Content Management System. In a very close category, WordPress came out in front of Elgg and Drupal, who finished joint second.
I voted for Elgg, which I was very impressed with. I find it hard to call WordPress a social networking CMS, really.

Deane,
Even Matt Mullenweg wasn't quite sure what Wordpress was doing in the social category. Did you ever come across any social networking sites using Wordpress during your reign as a judge? Inquiring minds want to know.
