I want to start a local site that's mostly an aggregator of other local blogs. What CMS should I use to easily link to posts?
PS - Not trying to steal the content, just grab a little intro and image that link to the external site...
You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

But that's a lot of work. What may be better for you in the end is to set up a "planet" style aggregator that simply sucks in the RSS feeds you point it at and makes brand new blog posts based on the entries in those feeds. Then at your leisure you can add markup to those post entries.
For this, try Feed Wordpress: http://feedwordpress.radgeek.com/
Since you're not wanting to steal the content and repost it as your own, you'll want to make sure you set it up to only include the summary of the RSS item in your post. That way you'll be driving traffic to your source feed sites.
One nice thinga bout serving up a planet of feeds like this is that you're actually "rehosting" the content so that your posts are search-engine-friendly and indexable.
