I think half the problem with newspaper.com CMS, especially homebrewed CMS is that the people in charge of the sites treat the Web as a newspaper.

What I mean is that I think a lot of editors out there are looking for special projects that require their own back-ends and over the years these special projects end up bloating the CMS.

The beauty of most blog content management systems is that they treat content as part of a stream. The display mechanism doesn’t change much simply because the content is different.

Simplicity is important.
