November 3, 2006 - Shapes and Pages Launches redesign of afewgoodmenus.comAs we continue to see more demand for CMS websites, we have redesigned afewgoodmenus.com and lauched it using TYPO3. This redesign lets us take advantage of the powerful capabilities of a CMS and focus on content without extensive programming.

A Content Management System (CMS) is a piece of software that runs on a server. Typically a database application, a CMS makes it easy to publish and administrate content. Some basic features that are common to all CMSes:

Separation of content, structure and design

A CMS improves the lifecycle of your website for years to come. The "look and feel" of your site can be changed or relaunched, leaving existing content and page architecture untouched. No need to worry about copying and pasting content into another site, simply publish your new design and the CMS will pull the content into the new look.

October 21, 2005 - RSS is here Shapes and Pages initiated an RSS feed today. We hope to use this to communicate with both clients and prospective clients, keeping all in touch with news, events and celebrations within our organization.

October 14, 2005 - Firefox Shapes and Pages has switched to Firefox as our browser. We still test on IE, Safari, and IE for Mac, but find there are significant advantages to Firefox. We encourage you to take a look. We find it clean, simple and very powerful.

September 14, 2005 - W3C xhtml and CSS testing passed Shapes and Pages completed the transition to a CSS model for our web site. It is our intention to do as much possible development using CSS both for the control it gives developers and the cost reduction it affords clients that come back looking to 'spruce up' their image. The site wide control will benefit all.
