You get so used to seeing wordpress used for blogs that you can easily forget it can be used as a content management system. I was browsing some css sites yesterday and came across this site and then later noticed it was powered by wordpress.

CSS Elite

if you know of any other sites which are using blogging software to power their site but arent actually blogging please let me know :) :)
