For many of us who are consultants/integrators of Plone, making time to explore the cool new features of Plone 3.0 can be nearly impossible to squeeze into our jam packed days. We are still implementing 2.5.3 dangit! We want to play with the new toys too!

My view on all the new bells and whistles that Plone 3.0 is providing us is first and foremost, how does this improve my clients daily interaction with their website, intranet/extranet or Plone based application?

And so, I'm starting a series chronicling my exploration into Plone 3.0..

How is it different?

What's really, really good.. what could use improvement (from the non-technical perspective)

Changes in the way we theme Plone (templates have changed completely..no more TAL?.. and learning viewlets is going to be a matter of just digging in and actually starting to write some.. that's how we learned creating viewlets for CMFContentPanels!)
