A bunch of other great uses for WordPress

by mickey on March 9, 2008

Lloyd Budd of the WordPress Publisher Blog points us to a handful of creative uses for WordPress.  The one I like best is actually just a link to Raj Dash’s article on “48 Unique Ways to Use WordPress“.

Among the 48 ideas:

  • Use it as a normal CMS.  I’ve somewhat done that on sites before.
  • Voting/polling site.  There are some good polling plugins, such as WP-Polls.
  • Intranet.  Use the normal blog/page set-up of WordPress, but use it for internal use only.  Very simple idea, but could be very useful for a lot of organizations.
  • Fark Clone. Show the best user-submitted links.
  • Job Listings

I’m sure there are more good ideas out there beyond the 48 listed in the article.  What are some creative ways that you’ve used WordPress?
