Curious if this is a potential feature down the road to provide a more complete alternative to WordPress. I hate dealing with WP, which is why I sought you guys out, and the loss of blogging is the only downer other than a few minor technical issues. Something simple in the fashion of Tumblr, perhaps.

Matthew, we would love to offer something like that and it may well happen down the line. I hate the clunkiness of WP too.
Right now, though, we need to focus on our core offering of providing a simple content management system - and without wanting to sound too anal, blogging is more of a content creation system.
I think Pagelime (pagelime.com) offer something like this, but for now it's not something we have planned for any time in the near future.
Well, I challenge the idea that a CMS is not used for content creation. If you can add content through it, then it's not all that different from a blog. Not a fan of PageLime, I like you guys, so hopefully this is something you'll add down the road. WordPress is pretty much considered a CMS now days, so makes sense that blogging capability would be included in most systems at this point. To have to add WP just for a blog in addition to a CMS doesn't make sense, might as well just use WP for all. But, again, it's bloated and not the most user-friendly for novice website owners. I don't know, just some thoughts. You guys are the experts. I only design websites to pay bills. Proxy career. Ugh. Your service makes my life a lot easier though, so thank you.

You know what, that would look really good as a tweet ;)
Really though, thanks for the kind words - it means that we're not wasting our time every day when we know that you guys are liking what we do.
SimpleCMS is outstanding, keep up the great work and never think that your wasting your time! I don't know what I would do without SimpleCMS!
I know this is a complicated feature, however this addition would really set simplecms apart from its competitors. Pagelime promised this functionality months and months ago, however they have gone silent. If this were even a feature that we had to put up 15 bucks a month to gain the privilege of using, I would be on board. My clients are just really hounding me for a deeper ability to create content within their website.
