[thelist] Using BLOGS as CMS

[Daniel Fascia]

>Couple of things - moveabletype != free except for personal and
>non-profit use:

I will send them a $50 donation... its excellent software and I hear a
rumour that they are winding up for an enterprise version which will be
more like proper CMS. Will definately buy this...

I like blogs so much since they fulfill my dreams of just planting the little
tags into the templates (with a few snazzier options)

>I have in the past, and as long as your CMS needs are similar to a blog,

Im doing some pretty way out stuff with moveable type... Ive hacked the
editor code to add some tag shortcuts and managed to hack the calendar
into an event scheduler (by running it negative time ;-) )

The best thing about MT is the editing interface is so very robust, unlike many
CMS Ive tried which are quirky...

Might write an article about this stuff actually
