| a site like collegehumor.com what would be required to make and run a site similar to collegehumor.com? are there any free cms's out there that (coupled with some plugins maybe) can mimic that site? also, how do you suppose they update this site? staff maybe?
thanks!

| I would say you could you wordpress with a highly modified layout and theme coupled with a few custom plugins to come up with something like that site. Also, it looks like they have a staff of ~14 and also pay people to write content.
Hope that help. |

| I have a similiar site (Arcade) and I have to update manually. Some CMS have codes to grab files put these take up a lot of resources and aren't usually cheap. To get a similiar site you are going to need a few $ to invest with. |
