What is PostNuke (PostNuke)?
Some
may see PostNuke as a weblog or content management system. But PostNuke is more than
that, PostNuke is a community, content, collaborative management system,
a C3MS. It's your electronic toolbox, a set of
tools allowing you to build a dynamically generated web site that five
years ago would have cost hundreds of thousands of dollars to launch.
What makes PostNuke unique?
Postnuke is unique because it not only provides you with a
wonderful set of tools, but it provides you with a community of users.
Postnuke is a community that responds to you when you need help or
information.
Why is PostNuke popular?
Because it is easy to install, easy to understand/use,
and easy to administer. Anyone from the novice to the expert can install
and adminster a PostNuke site. If you can transfer files to your hosting
account then you can install PostNuke. Above all these things, you can manage
your site's content and data through any Internet connected web browser,
anytime, anywhere with administration ease describes Postnuke!
Many have
also discovered PostNuke doesn't fit in to any of the traditional definitions
of a content management system. For example, PostNuke is much more than a "blog"
although it can be a blog. PostNuke is more than a "content management system"
although it does manage content. So as you can see, PostNuke can do all these
things and much more...PostNuke adds another ingrediant to the recipe, it
provides you with a site to build a community, a community that
interacts with the content so they can call it their own. Again this is
why we've called it a C3MS, Community,
Content, and Collaborative Management
System.
So in the end what is PostNuke?
PostNuke is many things to many people; it's a chameleon of
sorts, taking on the demands of what you want to accomplish as a
webmaster, publisher, or community developer, with ease. So in the end,
it is a set of tools you can use to extend your business, your hobbies,
and your life online.
The
community is ever growing and as we move forward into the next year
things will only get better, people are talking, developers are
stabilizing, the community is pitching in, and PostNuke's rough edges are
being smoothed out.
Someone,
somewhere, is waking just waking up, pouring himself or herself a cup of
coffee, before sitting down in front of their computer, thinking what
needs to be done today. Asking, How can I make my life easier and in the
process help make PostNuke better. The PostNukeCommunity is what makes
PostNuke stand out in a crowd. Community is why we all stay!
Yes,
there are similar packages like this available, there are other choices
you can make... but where else do you get all the drama, where else do
you get such a passionate community of people, so willing to work
together to achieve goals and make things happen? The PostNukeCommunity is
second to none; the PostNuke software stands above the rest because of
this community effort.
