City of Worcester website makeover

by Brendan Melican on October 17, 2009

I must have missed the news somewhere over the last few days, but it looks like the City of Worcester has finally rolled out an updated web presence. At first glance it’s not terrible and certainly more functional than the site it replaced. I’m sure my designer friends will find no shortage of details to pick apart, but that’s what they get paid for. At the very least, when compared to the old shit brown site this is a 1,000,000% improvement.

Does anyone out there have any insight as to what they chose for a CMS? Was the work done internally or outsourced?

Looks like WebGUI 7.6.35.

Haven’t heard of this CMS.

the coolest thing about the city’s website is that now you can find dog licenses, dog owners and dog’s names. BTW was that pit bull that escaped the other day whose pic was int he Telegram even registered? now you can find out! Two paws up for Mike O’Brien.
