I have been using MovableType as my blogging platform for the last three years. I had always been on version 2.6, but never thought of upgrading to version 3 since it costs a lot. No more ... the new release of MovableType 3.3, which was released a week ago, is finally free for personal bloggers. The installation/upgrade process is also a breeze thanks to the adoption of AJAX technology. Take a try!
When we started offering professional support and paid licenses for Movable Type over two years ago, the idea of business blogging wasn't obvious nor was the need for a reliable blogging vendor that a company could trust as a partner.
Since then, the power of business blogging has become obvious. So we've increased our commitment to Movable Type, the world's preferred platform for business blogging. The most visible result of which is the release of a new update, Movable Type version 3.3, along with an entirely new product, Movable Type Enterprise.

We also continue to make our personal license for Movable Type even more open: The personal version of Movable Type is now completely free, and supports as many blogs and authors as you want. Of course, we continue to offer paid support as an option for personal blogs, along with services such as professional installation.
