I JUST heard about Adobe’s acquisition of Day Software and have to admit my first reaction was total disappointment. I always admired Day’s commitment to architecture and standards. Day is one of the few upper upper tier web content management companies to stay focused on the web — not just as a place [...] Related posts:

After over 10 years of working in content management, I have come to realize that there is only one way to learn the value of managing structured information: the hard way — and that way is only 50% effective. People can intellectually accept concepts like content re-use and content/layout separation, but in the heat [...] Related posts:

One of the most common points of friction between project managers and developers is planning work. Most programmers hate creating work breakdown structures (WBS). You can’t blame them, accurately predicting steps and effort required to build undesigned software is impossible. Yes, you heard that right.

Roberto Galoppini has an interesting case study on selecting an open source project management tool. In it, he describes his SOS Open Source methodology for filtering open source projects by looking at a number of factors organized into three categories: sustainability, industrial strength, and project strategy.

A customer struts into a car dealership, slams a 200 page requirements document down onto a salesman’s desk, and triumphantly declares “I know exactly what kind of car I want to buy.” The startled salesman opens the document to a random section and starts to flip through a few pages that describe a lug [...] Related posts:

Categories: Email, Cloud Computing, Collaboration, Document Management, Web Content Management (WCM), Blogs
Most new site CMS implementations (as opposed to site migrations from one CMS to another) start off with a set of HTML mockups.
