The title of this article says it all: "Wait, You Write In A Spreadsheet?”

I blogged this back in 2003, but that was about simple, structured data. These people actually used a CMS to generate highly-composed media-driven features. The methodology they used is either hilarious or terrifying, and I think they’d agree with that, but I just love stories about weird CMS work.

Their process eventually (thankfully?) morphed into a product called Stacker.
