I'm developing a site and I want it to have a very simple blog page. What are the best options to add in a blog to the site? blogger/wordpress seem like overkill, as I just want to be able to do simple posts and allow people to comment, are there any recommened blog scripts that I could use? I don't mind it being commercial as long as there's no branding on it. The site is being developed in Xhtml, Css, Jquery, Php, mysql.
thanks for any help.

Personally I would use Wordpress, I know it may seem to have over-bloat for your needs, but you never know when your needs change/expand so having a good base system for this is a good place to be.
You can strip out and hide a lot of Wordpress functionality through simple extensions if you wish the UI to be more simple. It's not the worlds #1 blogging software for no reason ;)

A great alternative to wordpress is b2evo. Its free, open source and easy to set up and use.

I've been wanting to make a website but I wanted to code it myself without using one of those website makers. Are there any ways of doing this? I would also like to publish it as well. Thanks.
1.Write your code and save it.
2.Purchase a domain and host it with ehost or something like that.
3.Upload your file. That's it.
[ehost provide hosting with free domain]
This is not technically an appropriate question for SO. However, you need to learn the basics of HTML. Start at W3 Schools. http://www.w3schools.com
You mentioned that you already know HTML. If you are just making static content, that will suffice. I strongly recommend learning CSS. While it is not technically necessary, it will make your life much easier. When you want to publish it, you will have to pay for a domain and a hosting service. Google Domains can help you with this.

I am currently building an HTML web site and i need the make it multilingual ...
so i was asking what are the best solutions?
Should I use sub domains http://en.mysite.com, or make it simple, e.g.:
mysite.com/en/index.htm -
mysite.com/fr/index.htm
Should I translate everything for all language or are there tools to auto translate?
Finally, how can I make the website detect the users location and redirect him to his language?
Generally, I would say to have higher rank in search engines it might be better to avoid subdomains.
Since you only have HTML, the redirection solutions are not good enough to consider them. For instance if someone decide to visit English version from Paris, to avoid annoying redirections you might need to keep track of this choice by cookies.
Instead of redirection you can still suggest a language for them (according to their location). It's possible by google loader: https://developers.google.com/loader/
You could use /your/path?lang=en.
To detect the users language, see: https://stackoverflow.com/a/8199791/1500022

I want to design an interactive website (with checkboxes, radiobuttons etc.) which I would later link up with a MySQL database. But I don’t know any HTML. Is there any (free) software that enables me to design my website using drag-and-drop of controls and generates the HTML automatically? Which is the best software in your opinion?
There are some good web applications out there such as Weebly and Webs, but if you really want downloadable software, I would suggest Nvu.
In my opinion, Dreamweaver is the best editor for newbies, it is very intuitive, kind of like using Microsoft Word, and it already contains some interactive scripts, for example for integrating a music player on your website. However, to make the website interact with a database, or to store data in any way, you need more than just HTML, you will likely have to learn about PHP or a similar server-side programming language.

I'm looking at this service: http://www.intuitionhq.com It's great, but it requires the user to opt in to the test. I'd like to find a service that I can just embed some javascript on the page and wherever a user clicks is recorded so I can find out what's most popular on what page. Does anyone know of something like that?
I'm one of the folks from IntuitionHQ - just thought I'd drop in on this. As you say, we don't currently have that functionality, but we are always on the lookout for popular features, and I'll be sure to put another check mark next to this one on our list.
For what you are describing now Mouseflow sounds like it might do the trick, so perhaps check that out. And keep us in mind for when you want to test some different designs, or if you want to compare two designs with each other (as we also do A/B testing).
Good luck with your testing, and if you have any further questions, please do ask.
Cheers,
Jacob from IntuitionHQ.

I am looking for an open source social bookmarking site CMS so I can build a site like delicious with it for my organization. This will be deployed in the internal LAN.
Do you have any recommendations?
SemanticScuttle is the best I've found: http://sourceforge.net/projects/semanticscuttle/
i could suggest a site like www.rubysignal.com.
it works with django web framework, (rel 0.96).
The sources are on https://github.com/sebadima/bookmarks, but remember that it's just a alpha project.
Not sure of the tech you are using, but I've used netlicious to use delicious itself as a CMS and then consume the bookmarks, descriptions etc on another website through the API. If that makes sense.
Basically set up a delicious account and bookmark, tag and fill in the descriptions as you would normally. And then hook in the neticious API into your own site - delicious stores everything and all you fundamentally have to do is consume an API.
