Getting going with LightCMS

December 10, 2009

After launching appsftw.com, I’ve been looking at some pretty cool web apps. Some of the apps are completely interesting and just stand out, although that would depend on the type of app you’ve got your eye out for. Being a designer/developer, the apps that quickly grab my attention are those centered around what I mainly do.

Managing Content in the Back End

November 25, 2009

Once upon a time, web development was easy. Your typical web development contract looked somewhat like the following.

1. Design the front end of the website
2. Offer training to client to update their own website, or
3. Offer your wonderful hourly fees for you to update their website

Now, customers want to be able to manage their own content. They want to be able to edit and add data on the fly without any learning curve. In short, its gotta be easier than using Microsoft Word.
