Hi. I am going to create news content website so i am going to create system for posting news, inserting videos and pictures. However, i have heard of things such like wordpress, flick image gallery and so on.
Are they worth learning and using?
Will they be easy to adopt to my website?
Will they save my time and make developement of website easier?
Few questions about what is better to use in creating website

Short answer: yes
long answer: probably yes
Wordpress is great to create website fast, to have a web admin behing your website, and beiing able to control pretty everything without ever writing a single line of code.
This will work for maybe 95% of websites, but if you are in that 5 special % where you want to do something really special with your website, you will have to create your own addons to wordpress, and something you are going to have to fight against wordpress.
So the main question is: is your website standard or really really special with thing that you never saw on other websites?

Create your own framework: it probably be less secure, less addon, take a lot of time, but you have exactly what you want, and no script is executed for nothing
Use a cms: tested by thousand of person, thousand of addon, take 5minutes to install, but are a little bit slower since it has more stuff to manage, and sometime code will be executed for nothing since you deactivated some options. And if their a bug you must update your cmd fast or you could get hack (some people scans cms for certains bugs)
It all depends on what you like. I prefer to create my own cms, since I have the time to do, and I can tweak them like I want.
But when a client ask me for a website, I will probably give him a wordpress or other cms like this since people already know how to manage them, and they are really easy to use (plus the free template and addon)
So in a other word: public cms are good, but not perfect.
