A Movable Type Intranet

'Down at the hospital we are in the process of moving a huge portion of our intranet into Movable Type — about 90%. This includes departmental sites, informational sites, applications and just about a bit of everything else. It’s a really remarkable and interesting solution that I think will pay huge dividends. If it goes smoothly, which I have no doubt it should, we’re going to be able to provide very low cost (both in effort and monetarily) distributed authorship and increase functionality for both our users and stakeholders. By providing them with not only a vehicle to update their pages themselves, but also with tools to provide news, announcements, knowledge management and more — we’re really taking a huge step forward in turning our intranet into something that should show some big enterprise-wide ROI. With out the cost and hassle of a “real” content management system. ... All thanks to a simple blogging tool, some great plug-ins and some creative thinking.' From Asterisk*.
