   at that point I'm going to really make changes at a code level - unless I need to get the changes approved or understood by others (which is why I'd show them some new mockups/screens). Iterations can be done so much faster working directly

    I agree that it looks good and prices are competitive, but I disagree that the site feels empty. Its perfectly simple.

    I've always thought it would be fun to build a "ramen profit" tool suite. I.E. a suite of tools for startups to see how close they're coming to achieving ramen profitability and what else they need to do to get there. Also some tools to hel

    I like rbanffy's suggestion for google docs, but otherwise I'd go with joomla. Or you could search for something open source which is for project management. Drupal is nice, buts its heavy to use for something so small.
