Job of the week [at] ICN Technologies. Website CMS (Content Management System)
It was really exciting to have company website online couple of weeks ago. Now, it’s time to build our own CMS as the website background management console for.
- Programming language we use are PHP.

It will have the basically functionalities first off, and it will be deployed with the week. I can also provide some demo usernames in here and our company website icnpro.com, so that people can experience a little bit of our work. And this system will go on as a software development life cycle, which is suppose to be an 5 iteration process. The version beta prototype will be available during the week.
Functionalities to be included:

A custom made CMS has always been a advantage of any company, since it is more efficient, better defined function, by comparing to the ready made CMSes on the market. The ready made CMSes suite reasonably good for general purposes, and since they are good and took hundreds of man-hours to develop. But a custom made CMS has many advantages over the ready made ones. IT staffs have better understanding of the system within the company, and it takes less time to fix problems. And since it has only functionalities that is essential to the business, it has less possibility of fail compare to ready made ones.
Current work process is being working on the core system. And researching on new website technologies, such as AJAX. Ajax really the best option for all modem website, it is so resource efficient.
This top will continue updating.
Cheers.
