I’ve been cheating on my website, and with work no less. My affections have momentarily been transferred to our corporate web presence, which I have decided to rescue from the tyrannical rule of Digital Insight… I can no longer bear spending hundreds of dollars every time we need to upload a new PDF or change a word somewhere.
Just for giggles, and because I think I’m such a badass now that I’ve learned a little about CSS and CMS, I used an extra database slot that we get with our Intranet hosting to test a new design. After investigating my options, I fell head-over-heels in lurve with an open-source content management system called MAMBO.
Installation was a breeze, and it took me less than 8 hours to customize a template and load all the content that we already had on our site, plus a whole bunch of new stuff that we couldn’t even dream of before – Like polls, and banners, and… I’m getting choked up. It’s just so wonderful! If you want a powerful, flexible web site, Mambo is the shiznit.
PS. I’m still a love-slave to WordPress… See ya tomorrow!

OK, what a fu@^%ing great Friday morning!
First I run into your blog (by the means of incoherent something or another where you left a comment) and I’m thinking to myself:
“How cool is that! A female geek! …And good looking!”
Then I start reading and I come across this post about Mambo! Exactly what we’ve been looking for.
