Need Help Choosing Blog Software (MoveableType?)

Hi Everyone,

I'm in a dilly of a pickle, and am hoping someone can give me some
advice.

I've never done any blogging before, and now my boss wants me to
create a web site where users can come and create a blog. So our site
will have links to all the blogs that our users have created. We'll
host the images and store content in our database.

What's a good solution to use? If I can't find a 3rd party solution
I'll have to create my own from scratch using PHP and MySQL.

Blog software like Joomla and Serendipity seem to be designed for one
blog at a time, rather than a blog server.

I've been looking and there seems to be only 2 choices: MoveableType
and Webpress.

Anyone had any experience with creating a server to host multiple
blogs?

Thanks,

Jeff

Thanks for all the helpful responses. I did find at least 2 possible
solutions:

Serendipity Shared Installation

WebPress MU (Multiple Users)
