Re: Web Site Dev

For my more or less static website I use NetObjects Fusion. Feature rich,. under $50. and easy to set up. For blogging I use Wordpress. Again, easy to set up and entries can be made by email. It is widespread and can be hosted for free, or get a domain name.

However what I see generally used for the casual clubs, groups, and low-maintenance use id Facebook.

Right now, whenever someone's address or such changes, they forward it to
me, and I use a text editor to change it. Mike (my partner), who honestly
is the primary designer, wants to migrate it to something called Wordpress,
which I've googled. His reasoning is that it will be easily to make such
changes; i.e., he or I could just make them direct on the server, no FTP
needed.


Well, I'm not sure that's a compelling reason, but I'll let that slide.


My question is: What do you use to maintain a web site, and what do you
think about it? I guess I'm really asking about IDEs, such as Dream Weaver
and Wordpress, but I'm sure there are others in the wild.


Like I said, it's a real simple site; no order processing involved! .-)
