cpCommerce - OpenSourceCMS

OpenSourceCMS

Try before you dont buy.. A great site for trying out the various CMS (content management system) installs that are available in open source software. Fantastic idea, saves a lot of time setting up systems in order to trial them.

The way the site works is simplicity itself, a selection of open source systems are setup with admin passwords available for you to try them out. The site has a countdown of 2 hours in which you can play to your hearts content - once the two hours is up all the CMS reset back to standard build, ready for everyone to play again.

Its not all heart - the site offers reasonably priced hosting services as well so once youve chosen the CMS that works you can go on and deploy it.

Downside - I dont see any dot net CMS systems...
