In today's fast paced web based economy authoring and maintaining web content is an important task.

There is an interesting dilemma associated with this task!

The people who has the ability to produce the content does not have the ability to put this content into a web page. On the other side of the equation the developer who has the ability to do so does not have the ability to produce the content. Most companies have to employ several people or outsource the operation to maintain their web presence.
