Content System Management

Last wednesday, we had a first practical session at Marylebone High Street with our online course leader, the interesting point is he explains us about the Content Management System.

During David's class, he mentioned this jargon before, I remembered I asked him as well, but still have no idea at all, until last Wednesday, I got some ideas finally.

Content System Management

It's a system that most of the news agencies updating their stories, for instance, Paul introduced to us that in BBC itself, there're more than 20 management systems already, because I was asking does each news agency in UK possesses its own content management system, in order to help their staffs update stories.

Paul showed us how to update pictures, how to insert texts, how to put article titles etc, I found out that it was so easy for them to work in this kind of system rather than the html in Dreamweaver.

It's just like the simple website that you need to click the icon, then you insert what you need to update, basically similar as using the blogger.

There's no need for them to check code, or write any code. Paul also showed us update picture, how to use photoshop to crop the picture and set the correct image size.
