Spirited Website (2008)
In: Technology
10 Mar 2008I upgraded and gave a makeover to the Spirited website recently.
I have upgraded and rebuilt the Spirited website around about eight times since 1998 – and each time I keep telling myself to keep it simple to make it easier for the next upgrade. This time I have spent some more time do the planning.
The website is built using the open source content management system Drupal. I have used Drupal for a number of projects and it continues to prove itself as an incredible powerful and flexible application. However, in saying this it still remains that no matter how good the application it is the planning and management processes that are the most important parts of putting together a website.
In time, I hope to write more about this as it is a significant issue for organisations who begin to rely on their technology for doing their stuff.

My name is Dean Tregenza. My posts to this blog come from stuff on my notebook that I gather as I go about doing the things I do. The subject matter of the posts cover pretty much anything that comes to my mind. Some of it may be about technology related things. Everything I write is possibly heresy and wrong. For the record the content in the blog posts are not necessarily the opinions or the beliefs of the author, the people he quoted, or anyone else for that matter.
