Rapidweaver by Realmac Software
I know nothing about web design. Absolutely nothing. Enter Rapidweaver from Realmacsoftware. Rapidweaver is an all-in-one WYSIWYG (What You See Is What You Get) application that allows even the most novice web designers to create professional standardized web sites.
The program is very easy to use and I was able to pick it up in a matter of minutes. It comes with several templates for creating everything from blogs and html to styled text pages. iLife integration is another great feature in Rapidweaver, allowing you to assemble photo and movie albums far superior to anything that Apple’s .Mac service creates.
While the application may have many features that the newer user might enjoy it also has some great under the hood features such as automatic RSS and podcast feed creation. This allows a user to create their own blog and podcast and syndicate the information and mp3s via any RSS reader and iTunes.
Rapidweaver’s only requirements are a Mac running 10.3 (Panther) or 10.4 (Tiger), an Internet connection, and some place to host the website. The program will host your site on your .Mac account, or on any FTP (File Transfer Protocol) enabled server you choose.
The application is available for download at realmacsoftware.com for $34.95.
