Bike to Work Week It’s Bike to Work Week here in Milwaukee, sponsored and promoted by the Bicycle Federation of Milwaukee. Since my new assignment has me working just south of downtown, and a quick 2.7 miles from my place, I’ve been all over biking to work and this coordinated event is just a landmark to keep me going. I ride a gold Trek Pure, sort of an old man bike, I admit. But like most things, I absolutely don’t base my decisions on popular trends – bike styles or otherwise. So yeah, no fix gear for this girl. Having a big cruiser suits me great because I can sit upright, and so I don’t have that pushing pressure on my shoulders and wrists. I have a big seat, and so avoid tired bike butt syndrome. And I even have a rearview mirror, which is a must for riding in city traffic because you are constantly aware of the cars surrounding you on all angles.

A Content Management System (CMS) is a way to present and store information online in an easy to use format. CMS like this one make setting up a new site extremely simple, by giving clear steps to the initial set up (with this site, all I had to do was pick a name, pick a url, and pick a template), and clear navigation from there on out, using obvious symbols (i.e. pencil at the bottom of a post to edit) and well worded tabs (setting, layout, "monetize), to make for a friendly user experience. While I enjoy Blogger.com, there are many types of CMS to choose from, meeting the needs of everyone from individuals to large companies. See a more detailed synopsis of Content Management Systems below.
