Comment on Y Combinator Challenge - Mission Accomplished

The site builder but oriented around plugging it into other sites. You create something like Weebly but focus purely on letting other sites give it to their users (for profile pages, or entire sites). Charge for the service.

Isn't that what CushyCMS does (minus the charging in most cases)?

I hadn't seen CushyCMS. Just checked it out. The way it works seems entirely different from what I'm talking about. I want to be able to add a page designer to my site for my many thousands (or millions) of users. Or whatever I want. CushyCMS wants FTP/SFTP information for single site and it's not at all clear whether I can integrate it into my own site.

Oh I see what you mean. Then you want eXponent CMS. www.exponentcms.com. I'm good friends with the people who developed it, and I've used it myself it's a great package.

Lets you edit pages with a WYSIWYG interface instead of plugging in code or dealing with text templates. Give it a shot.

Thank you for listing that site! I've been looking for something like that for a long time!!!

No problem, nearly 100% of my freelance projects are using CushyCMS to keep them from mucking up code. It's also GREAT for centralizing your work without having to manage multiple FTP connections so often. One quick setup and you're good to go.
