PostNuke

What is PostNuke (PN)?

PostNuke ∞ an open source content management system. Some may see PN as a weblog or content management system. But PN 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 PN unique?
PN is unique because it not only provides you with a wonderful set of tools, but it provides you with a community of users. PN is a community that responds to you when you need help or information. Visit the support forums to get help or ask questions: http://forums.postnuke.com/∞

Why is PN 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 PN site. If you can transfer files to your hosting account then you can install PN. 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 PN doesn't fit in to any of the traditional definitions of a content management system. For example, PN is much more than a "blog" although it can be a blog. PN is more than a "content management system" although it does manage content. So as you can see, PN can do all these things and much more...PN 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?
PN 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 PN'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 pnCommunity? 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 pnCommunity? is second to none; the PostNuke ∞ software stands above the rest because of this community effort.
