According to php tutorial Wordpress was designed for simple postings of discrete articles like blogs with enhanced features not found on blogger.So it is a great blogging tool. But my opinion: If you're going to do more than just a blog, it is wasting time, money, and effort with WP

The site http://extensions.joomla.org/extensions contains a listing of all the extensions contributed by developers to the Joomla project.
Most of the websites that give free/proprietary joomla extensions in most cases are owned by the developers of the respective extensions (Note that their extensions are also listed on the extensions directory website linked here above). If you are looking for an extension, then the first stop should be the extensions directory!

out of all of them i'd pick Drupal. Joomla is good and works pretty much the same way, but I think that the Drupal community is much larger. There are many user created modules and themes that you may download and integrate into your site for free.

I don't know how drupal's community works these days, but few years ago I was on the same situation as our co-writer. What made me to go with joomla was the community. I asked a question and i waited for an answer (an useful one). from joomla's forum it came within few hours, and from drupal ... well i'm still waiting.
Please, don't get me wrong, I don't know how things are going with drupal these days.
Now, back to topic.
If you want a simple site with posts and comments, WP it's more the enough. If you want any other fancy stuff, Joomla will do that work.
If you have some experience with programming, you can go to build your own site (of course there are advantages and disadvantages but i think it's not the scope of your post)
