[Need Sugestion] wordpress as blog or keep using CI?

[eluser]skunkbad[/eluser]
One thing I have done lately is use Wordpress so my customer can create and edit content, but use CI to make custom queries for the content. CI loads the content faster, and CI provides an easier environment for making custom functionality. I just put Wordpress in a subdomain, like content.mysite.com, and it shares a database with CI. Other than a model, there really isn't anything else linking the two applications.
