Portals today are powered by content management sys¬tems and Open Source provides a lot of choice, be it a Web content management, a knowledge base using Wiki or blogs. While, content management is essential for most organizations, it may cost millions to implement.

This is where Open Source comes to rescue. Pick up an open source and free content management system and evaluate it for your needs. Popular examples are Drupal, Joomla, Typ03 and Plone. Most of these support Blogs and Wikis as an add-on or extension. Else, if you are interested in a standalone Blog or Wiki, the popular ones are Word press and MediaWiki. Many of these, can be installed on Linux as well as Windows. But there are systems specific to Windows too, like DotNet¬Nuke and Umbraco.
