Yesterday, I realized just how completely different the system is for updating the church web site really is.
I wrote earlier about the new web site and how we're using Movable Type for a content management system. Yesterday, while trying to escape the terrible heat of the day, I had retreated to our bedroom, the one air-conditioned room in the house. I checked my email on my Pocket PC and found a note from Al about a problem he had run into while trying to update something. The problem was caused by a bad template I had left on the site. So, I logged into the web site and deleted it -- all from the Pocket PC, using its built-in version of Internet Explorer.
This is the power of a web-based solution for authoring -- instead of needing to go to my computer and use some web authoring software, I can update the site from something as simple as a PDA.
