Users

As mentioned earlier, WordPress is now a complete web publishing platform. One of its characteristics is that it is capable of working with multiple user accounts, not just a single account belonging to the owner (admin/main author) of the site. There are different types of user accounts available, and they have different credentials and access rights.

WordPress is clearly trying to resemble a traditional publishing house where there are authors, editors, and other contributors all working together. Even though the option to create an unlimited number of user accounts won't be that impressive for anyone planning to manage a site on their own, it can surely be a more-than-essential feature for big, magazine-like websites.
