Russ Lipton’s “EE and Content Management Systems”

You might remember when we posted about the document that Russ Lipton put out called ExpressionEngine and the Multiplier Effect. It’s a tool people can use when explaining the benefits of ExpressionEngine to their potential clients.

Russ just released a new document to go with it called “ExpressionEngine and Content Management Systems”. It’s a basic intro, to and history of, content management systems. Looking at Russ’s plans for these and future documents, this new one looks like the prequel, and the Multiplier Effect is part two. Parts 1 and 3 haven’t been published yet.

These documents are already great and very useful. When they’re all out there, I think we’re going to have a pretty dang handy tool on our hands.

Read Russ’s announcement and discussion of his plans in the Community News forum, and check out both of the documents on his site. Russ is looking for feedback, so feel free to hit the forums and give him some ideas.
