Easily manage a school's website and intranet
Here's an interesting application for primary schools to help them manage their website. Site@School requires the school to have an Apache webserver (I believe IIS will work as well), PHP and MySQL running on Windows or Linux and does not require a very powerful computer to function.
Site@School offers schools the ability to easily maintain a website without any special technical knowledge. Most of the editors look very much like a standard text editor or word processor. It allows both students and teachers to post personal web pages with teachers being able to view a student's web page before allowing it to be posted to prevent any inappropriate content. Teachers can set up an intranet to improve communication and sharing of ideas between teachers. Of course there are also other modules that can be included such as calendars and agendas, a photo albums, guestbook, or a newsletter and forum.
This is something worth looking into for people who are managing a schools website or network and who don't want to spend much money for such services.
