When I first started this blog, it was done in Subtext, which is a very impressive .NET blog software. It is a fork off the old .TEXT blog engine. To give you a bit of history, .TEXT codebase was left and eventually became Community Server. That was my preferred choice of blogging engines, but I did not want to pay money for it at this point in time when I wasn`t even sure if I was going to have time or energy to continue the site over the yeras.
Actually WordPress was really the option I wanted, being the most popular and the most feature comprehensive blogging software out there (tons of plugins, tons of templates/themes, and so on)…
Now, Subtext can work great for you if you are willing to contribute some features. Otherwise you will find yourself dependent on a code base maintained by just a few people (rapidly growing, no doubt), but really in this case my business is blogging, not contributing to .NET blogging softwares, so I am abandoning the Subtext ship and switching to WordPress.
Some of the new features on this site you will find
- faster response rate due to caching plugin
- see related posts at the bottom of each post
- subscribe to comments so that you can continue the discussion if someone responds to you
- and more coming…
I wanted to add these features to make the site more interactive for everyone, plus nicer looking (I don`t have time to develop my own theme, I plan to utilize an already existing one online).
Lets see where it goes 
So for me, the clear winner is WordPress (even though its not running .NET).
I claimed that .NET is superior to PHP, however, of course, that does not mean that every single software written in PHP sucks, nor that every .NET software rocks.. Far from it

Subtext is actually a pretty vibrant and alive project lead by Phil Haack; and it does seem to have a very vibrant community around it.
You can also look at DasBlog which is really alive and being run by Scott Hanselman and Omar Shahine.
I’ve personally been positively surprised at the responsiveness and supportiveness of the team and scott in particular when I was trying to move my blog over to it. They were very helpful.
New features are being added to both of these blogging engines all the time.
WordPress is cool too.
BlogEngine.NET seems pretty good too.
