I'm trying to get a page setup where I can update & add stories, pictures, videos & advertisements easily, without reprogramming. I'd like something similar to Indystar.com or USA Today.com. Those both have a standard setup with new data added throughout the day. I'd also need to be able to search past articles, etc...

Can anyone point me in a direction?
Do I need totally custom written code?
Or is this something that can be found "off the shelf"?
Any been there done thats?

danke,
-sean

Joomla and Citydesk both look promising. Joomla has a great price, too! I'll do some research in the next couple days if I get a chance.

Any other ideas?

Paul, how did you link to the National Weather Service's data?

There is a module for Joomla called Z Weather. Just enter some parameters and go.
