In yet another rebranding-centric attempt, Simple CMS provider Zimplit (news, site) released its "borrow another site's design to create yours" feature.

By any stretch, this is a brave move by Zimplit. The new Zimplit v3.0 allows you to pick any favorite web site that you like the look of and use that as the basis for your own site's design.

Australian developers Stateless Systems (news, site) has built on and improved its simple Web Content Management System CushyCMS. New features include improved editing capabilities and security. But one thing has remained the same, this is still a simple to implement and use Web CMS.

Ever thought of building your very own CMS from scratch? Consider taking Zimplit CMS and putting your logo on it, or naming it after your favorite goldfish.

In December 2008 the MODx team announced an upgrade featuring several key fixes and the usual security updates. This upgrade to v0.9.6.3 is touted as the final release of the initial incarnation of the MODx CMS development framework.

We knew it was coming and now it’s here. Stateless Systems has announced a Pro version of their simply simple web content management system, CushyCMS.

Ah how time flies…Why it was just last week we were telling you all about a new content management solution called CushyCMS. At the time it was still in Private Beta.

But good news..it has been officially released today and it’s still free!

CushyCMS comes to you direct from Stateless Systems the creators of popular RetailMeNot.com coupon site. They claim this is a CMS designed specially for the Web Designer.

The CMS enables Web Designers to focus and maintain control on design and Information Architecture while pushing the task of actual content management out to the non-technical folks in the organization. Ok wait…what CMS doesn’t do that?

Managing content, especially if you have a large base of people contributing and editing, can be a headache if you aren’t already using a CMS system. The questions of how to integrate it all in a flowing environment can give IT guys and development teams an ulcer.

Stateless Systems has launched a private beta of a free online (SaaS) content management system called CushyCMS that aims to make life just a bit easier for website owners and designers the world over.

Wordpress, Expression Engine and Movable Type may be out front in the Micro CMS space, but a little competition is always a good thing. That competition comes in the form of New Zealand based Silverstripe who have released an updated version of their open source CMS product.
