If you have or need a website, a blog, a way to share stories or pictures with your familiy online, an online diary, ... you need a Content Management System or CMS.
The world of Content Management Systems is constantly expanding as more and more systems, written on different platforms and offering a variety of different features, are being developed. This is true in commercial and Open Source (Free) Content Management Systems. On one hand this means that we have greater freedom of choice, however it also means going through a very complex process of matching our needs against this wide array of available solutions.
We offer our services in customizing and implementing a number of Open Source Content Management Systems. We can help you determine what you need, where to host it, to define, implement and maintain it.
Below are the Open Source Content Management Systems we have rolled out for our clients.

WordPress is a state-of-the-art publishing platform with a focus on aesthetics, web standards, and usability. WordPress is both free and priceless at the same time.
WordPress started in 2003 with a single bit of code to enhance the typography of everyday writing and with fewer users than you can count on your fingers and toes. Since then it has grown to be the largest self-hosted blogging tool in the world, used on hundreds of thousands of sites and seen by tens of millions of people every day.
WordPress is an Open Source project, which means there are hundreds of people all over the world working on it. (More than most commercial platforms.) It also means you are free to use it for anything from your cat’s home page to a Fortune 5 web site without paying anyone a license fee.
WordPress was born out of a desire for an elegant, well-architectured personal publishing system built on and MySQL and licensed under the GPL. It is the official successor of b2/cafelog. WordPress is fresh software, but its roots and development go back to 2001. It is a mature and stable product. We hope by focusing on user experience and we can create a tool different from anything else out there.
