However, it's harder than anticipated to find any type of Content Management System whose intended audience is a computer illiterate family. I personally use Drupal for content and Gallery for photo albums, and frankly can't stand PHPNuke. The only features required would be a blog of sorts and a photo album.

  1. Go do the Mac thang by rjung2k · · Score: 1, Flamebait

    Like others have said, a Mac and a .mac account will do everything you want, and more. One-click publishing of photos, idiot-proof web blogging, plus the benefits of using a Mac over a Wintel PC. :-)

    The upfront costs are higher, but think of that as the time you save not having to walk them through the steps every few weeks.
