A New Challenge
My everyday job leads me to work mainly on SugarCRM, writing analysis, building new modules, implementing customizations and, last but not least, study new SugarCRM’s patches and releases (looking for changes on the core).
Since I moved to a small town (Lauriano, near Turin – 1500 souls) I started getting involved in the local touristic association. And here I faced with my new challenge : building a (simple) new web site for them (actually us…).
I consider this as a challenge, simply because I never built an entire web site: I’m not a designer, and I guess I’ll experience some problem on the graphical side of the job…. Of course I’ll be open to Web Designers and Developers willing to cooperate on this funny project : if You want to help, drop me a line… I just can guarantee that no one will earn money from this project (we are all volunteers) : only fun and (maybe) a bit of visibility on this crazy world…
After some test with Joomla and Drupal, I decided to realize this website with WordPress, because I consider it simple and powerful enough to satisfy the (small) requirements of the organization (such as publishing events-related articles, photos and videos, or link to Twitter and facebook accounts).
The real challenge is learning the WordPress framework, to build custom plugins needed by this web site; plugins that I’m planning to freely share with others (once done, of course !).
Stay tuned, for updates on this project…
