III.                Why a CMS vs Website

Extensible, easy to care for, easy for multiple content editors, can’t really screw it up (CSS), add-ins, open-source, stable, admin dashboard centralizes built-in features, easily changeable, content separate from template (look), database driven .. content remain in archive, media friendly (images, movies, flash, etc.), pre-built nav buttons
