Lately I’ve seen a lot of Blogs that are powered by Wordpress…  
I looked into it a bit and found out that it is based on PHP ad mySql.  
I’m considering getting it and learning, but not because I want a blog, but because it seems like it could be used as a CMS (content management system.)

My question is this:

Do any of you have any experience with Wordpress and do you think its abilities could be applied in a much more universal way, or is it just good for blogs and useless for everything else.  
Any advise greatly appreciated!
