Thats because macports installs itself to /opt/* which isn't in your $PATH. Easy to fix. But macports still causes more problems then its worth. So does fink for that matter.
What problems? Package dependency problems? The worse that I've had happen is having to deal with broken packages. The amount of times I haven't had to deal with figuring out dependencies makes it more then worthwhile, IMHO.

Inconsistent library versions when compiling programs. Hacks that can break very easily to detect system libraries.
