New website nearly ready...

I’ve been working on a new version of the Apps On The Move website. I’m hoping it is nearly ready to replace the old one. Still some work to do transferring blog posts across and browser testing.

The current/old website was created in Rapidweaver – which is a great piece of software. However I’m eager to move over to a CMS of some kind – primarily so it will be much easier to blog on the move. Having to write posts on my Mac and then upload isn’t ideal.

WordPress was chosen mainly as I didn’t have time to fully investigate all the possible alternatives – Joomla, Drupal, Concrete5, … – and there are many excellent professionally designed themes to choose from and easily tweak. PHP is a fairly sane language for a web platform.

If you would like to see the new website before it goes properly live, i.e. what people will see when they visit www.appsonthemove.com, you should be looking at it now. Feel free to have a browse and post feedback here. At the moment all comments are moderated. If I see that the majority aren’t spam I may remove that restriction, or look at adding some human check that isn’t too annoying.
