Default Blog and forum software for this site?

What is the blog and forum software for this site? I'm considering adding a blog and a forum to my site and like the idea of keeping it in my domain versus splitting the traffic going with Blogger or something similar.

The forum uses vBulletin.

Not sure about the blog, but I think it may be Wordpress. I would recommend Wordpress in any case, it's excellent.

Steve has talked about what he uses somewhere previously ...

I also recommend WordPress, it's a fabulous piece of blogging kit with a tonne of add-ons and themes available.

@Vanessa: Thanks for those links. It's always nice to see how other bloggers do things!

I have 5 blogs at the moment, all running Wordpress, and have never had a problem. There are tons of templates and plug-ins for increased functionality and the support community is excellent. I suppose that’s why Steve and other big names use this as their blogging platform.
