Time flies.

The day before yesterday as I was waiting for the light to turn green, I noticed a bunch of candy on the sidewalk. It looked like the contents of an entire, quite large, bag of soft candy. A not particularly seedy looking person walked slowly across the street until he reached the candy. Then he kneeled, took a handful, stood up, stuffed it in his mouth and then proceeded back across the street from where he came.

webcms.org - looks like they want to sell consulting services, despite the name. They do have a list of content management systems.

Microsoft releases Content Management System - "Bill's gone out and bought one, rebadged it and dropped the price".

Did Poor Usability Kill E-Commerce? - another Alertbox, as usual full of stuff like: "If Users Can't Buy, You Don't Make Money". Do business-people really need that much cardboard in their headlines? I guess Jakob Nielsen would know...

I have chosen to use a more old school method of spam prevention.
