Lately I have been having somewhat of a battle with my own conflicting opinions about the various CMS-es available. By CMS I mean any system which allows you to manage and publish content (not necessarily web based). The sites I work with are usually informational based, providing information of some sort and not a web application type service sites such as Twitter.

Being a developer, and an iPhone owner, the announcement of the iPhone SDK from apple was very exciting. I was very excited about the prospect of developing software for the iPhone. One thing that I really like about the iPhone is the way it fits into your daily life. Its very simple to use and at the same time very powerful. A large part of why it has both these attributes (easy to use and powerful) is because of its user interface.

I've been somewhat busy over the last month. Fourteen of those days were spent in the 108 degrees Florida Sunshine. Ahhh....

I have also been busy 'switching'. Yes I have jumped from Windows to Mac OSX for my main platform. To be quite honest its not as hard to switch over as it may seem. Everything works pretty much the same as with Windows except it runs smoother and you don't get the OS fighting you. Instead the OS try to help you by staying out of your way. Its like the power of the Mac OS is there but its not in your face so to speak. You unravel as much as you want.
