Six Apart's MovableType is Web Office Technology

SixApart MovableTypeSix Apart's MoveableType is highly customizable, open, modular, rock-solid and used by thousands. It also powers this blog. Sixapart still needs to do some work to develop a version that will be a true success within the enterprise. Their to-do list includes developing LDAP integration, building administration tools capable of handling thousands of users, has tight email integration and improving the UI by adding a WYSIWYG tool. However, even with this work still to be done, MovableType is already a very compelling Web Office solution.

The true power of MovableType, however, is not only limited to blogs. MovableType can also be used as an RSS router, and as a tool for building semantic data during the course of normal business work-flows. MovableType's structure allows for the quick and easy addition of semantic pages. For example, a Bio Blog can be accompanied by a Bio XML file. As such, MovableType becomes an integrated HR management engine. A similar approach to clients takes MovableType into the CRM arena.
