Was helping a friend do something simple in iWeb, and ran into just how limited it was. And had an idea.
iWeb should be CMS based. Either take an existing CMS like Drupal or Joomla and write extensions (releasing them, as is appropriate for open source) or write their own (and release that as well, IMHO). While it can be set up on any hosting service with PHP/MySQL, MobileMe will provide it, no setup required.
iWeb then is used for configuration and content editing, with the usual Apple focus on interface, and an iPad/iPhone app for on-the-go access.
Cory Doctorow has a big article today on the iPad, "Why I won't buy an iPad (and think you shouldn't, either)". It's one of the more negative bits on the iPad in these few heady days coming up, and in comments, responses by Joel Johnson and John Gruber. So let me step in.
OK, I'm starting a blog on this site.
There's three categories of "stuff" on this site - reviews, articles, and blog. So what's the difference between articles and blogs?
Articles are going to be things that aren't immediate, things like an in-depth analysis of an issue, or some information. Blog entries are more ephemeral, to the moment, a sort of "what's on my mind now".
