I used cutewnews for a while, when I was new to coding ( http://cutephp.com ), it is almost the same as the blogging system. Create entries, edit posts, archived posts, categories, the template is very customizable, allow / block comments, require users to register to add comments, block IP addresses, WYSIWYG editor, etc. All this is done at the end, and then you add a few lines of code on your page and messages will appear. You can also specify how much you want to display on the page. It is simple, but effective and free. I believe there is a link at the bottom of the script, returning to http://cutephp.com/ , but you should be able to find it and remove it. It takes about 2 minutes to install and configure. You don't even need mysql. It will work with any frame frame work or coding style if you have the opportunity to create your own blank page where you can flip the code.
