When my account in a free mysql database hosting got wiped away because of technical problems, I tried to make it run on a flatfile content blogging application called Pilot.  I intended it to be a reference website for desktop applications and for HTML demonstration pages.  But it didn’t turn out well.  Lately, I discovered the FlatPress blog application which looks like WordPress on the externals but looks differently from the administration area.

Like Wordpress, it installs very easily and with the proper directory chmoded to world-writable, one can be blogging in no time.  Unlike Wordpress, however, it doesn’t have a big and active theme developers’ community.  The same goes with its plugins.  Despite these limitations however, I think that FlatPress is going to have a future.  There are a lot of free PHP hosts, but not many that offer MySQL too.  So blog applications like FlatPress will always have its market.
