Information Research Weblog

I suppose that, as I run a fairly complex site like InformationR.net, I ought to have been interested in Content Management Systems (CMS) a long time ago. However, my attention has been drawn to them again by David Gurteen's 'Knowledge-Letter' - check out his Web site - via a link to Why every small website needs a content management system . A short, interesting read, but my interest took a step back at the statement:

The good news is that a lightweight CMS, suitable for a modest-sized website, is not expensive. It can be as low as a few thousand dollars...

That's Australian dollars, of course, but, even so, my base rate is zero, so there's a while before I give up my do-it-yourself system. Small businesses might think differently, however.
