Having more or less finished putting together the site, I feel the urge to do a review of Rapidweaver 4. In addition to discussing the experience of developing the site, I compare it to Apple’s iWeb (which I started with before getting Rapidweaver) and doing it ‘properly’ with my old PHP driven site.
