Maybe there are people here who use Word Press. how is it as an easy-to use, publishing platform for say a business. I see there are some themes, you can update news and archive pretty easily?

Check out my site. That's just using the default kubrick theme. http://dabullz.com/ The possibilities are endless with wordpress. I love it.
Wordpress rocks. After much analysis, that is what I went with. We used the media theme and totally customized it - easily. I'm very happy with it, and that's after a very expensive mistake using Drupal. www.MrAllBiz.com
My assistant built my whole site - her fees are very reasonable. If you are interested, shoot me a PM. Maybe even just for a lesson...
Saw your assistant's website, good stuff. A lot of the stuff I do as some of my side consulting gigs....good stuff there too....
very cool sight . . . impressive. I just paid a local guy to help me with my site. I wish I knew about your assistant before cutting him the check.
Yes, it gets decent traffic, especially given that I don't do a lot or marketing of it, other than getting good links in. Thanks for the kind words. The best thing I did was to start blogging - its original content (I usually write for others), and the SEO is strong. I get more hits from searches from that than anything. I use my assistant pretty much on a virtual basis and it works just fine, btw.
yeah, I have my own VA and I pay her $5 an hour. Doesn't have quite the same set of skills though...but decent enough.
Google Page Rank: 5 *drool* (Page rank isn't everything, but when you get above 4 you are doing a lot of things right. Wish I was there. Nice job.)
We were running WordPress MU at s2blogs.com for a while, but people rarely made use of it. I posted a poll in the Blazers' forum about vb3's blogs and there wasn't any interest either. Just a data point.
Ok, now I feel both jealous and annoyed. Nothing sucks worse than when the rich kid gets a piece of candy and he doesn't even know it's candy. Here's an explanation of Pagerank: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PageRank Basically, it's a simple scale of N/A to 0 to 10. N/A means Google hasn't even noticed you. 0 means Google knows you exist, but you aren't that big. 10 means Google thinks you are one of the most important sites on the internet. RipCityTwo.com's home page is a 0. My site is a 3, after 15 months of work. CNN.com is a 10. Going from 0 to 2 is pretty easy. Getting to 3 is harder (at least it was for me). Every number up from there is a bitch, as far as I can tell. That you have a 5 and don't even know it makes me want to find out where you live and spray purple and gold all over your windshield.
