Why is that? What is WCM doing wrong?http://www.kitsite.com/blog/2008/04/the-future-of-content-management.htmlWed, 16 Apr 2008 24:00:00 +0100http://www.kitsite.com/blog/2008/03/the-future-of-web-design.htmlMichaelWe're pleased to announce that we are sponsoring the Future of Web Design conference in London this April. I've been to a couple of the Carsonified conferences and they always get a great line-up of speakers. Hope to see you there!http://www.kitsite.com/blog/2008/03/the-future-of-web-design.htmlTue, 11 Mar 2008 24:00:00 +0000http://www.kitsite.com/blog/2008/03/find-us-at-sxsw.htmlMichaelJamie and Aanand are heading off to SXSW today, for five days of interactive fun. Plus they might catch the odd film or band, and the party schedule doesn't look half bad either. If you're attending too, say hi. http://www.kitsite.com/blog/2008/03/find-us-at-sxsw.htmlThu, 6 Mar 2008 24:00:00 +0000http://www.kitsite.com/blog/2008/02/litcamp.htmlMichaelI'm pleased to announce that we are supporting LitCamp, an unconference for fiction writers taking place in London later this year, and organised by our friends at Pulp.netAs you can probably guess, it's a riff on the kind of event that Barcamp has been pioneering (though less geeky). There are lots of literary festivals in the UK already, but they're mostly the author-talks-down-to-the-audience variety. Time for a fresher, more democratic approach. You can preregister now to get discounted tickets and—more importantly—throw in your suggestions and ideas. If you're a writer, hope to see you there! http://www.kitsite.com/blog/2008/02/litcamp.htmlThu, 28 Feb 2008 24:00:00 +0000http://www.kitsite.com/blog/2008/02/selling-complexity.htmlMichaelSalesforce are always worth watching, and their Spring 08 release is full of interesting ideas. "Development as a service", "User interface as a service": why not? These are things we're trying to do too with PostCMS. The new Salesforce Content app looks nice too, though not content management in any real sense. One thing that is striking about their site is how complicated their offering has become. I guess this is deliberate. It's about selling into the enterprise, saying "we've got as much complexity as you need", because enterprise types like to think what they are doing is really complicated (which it probably is) and so needs a really complicated-looking solution (which it probably doesn't). Compare that other well-known hosted CRM app, Basecamp, where the focus is on simplicity.http://www.kitsite.com/blog/2008/02/selling-complexity.htmlMon, 18 Feb 2008 24:00:00 +0000http://www.kitsite.com/blog/2008/02/we-ll-be-your-code-monkey.htmlMichaelWe've introduced a new service for PostCMS, our hosted content management service. Called Code Monkey, it's aimed at less technical web creatives. The idea is that you can upload your Photoshop (or whatever) designs and we'll take care of the business of turning them into XHTML + CSS + content-managed web templates.http://www.kitsite.com/blog/2008/02/we-ll-be-your-code-monkey.htmlThu, 7 Feb 2008 24:00:00 +0000http://www.kitsite.com/blog/2008/02/friendlyface.htmlMichaelWe just launched a new German-language travel tips site called Friendlyface.http://www.kitsite.com/blog/2008/02/friendlyface.htmlFri, 1 Feb 2008 24:00:00 +0000
