  I love RapidWeaver and have used it for my podcast and my personal blogs for over two years. RapidWeaver4 is an awesome upgrade and was surprised I didn't have to pay to upgrade from 3.6. Thanks for covering this great app, Victor.
  
  Check out our RW sites.

  Victor,
  Thanks for the segment on RapidWeaver I'm definitely going to be checking it out. RapidWeaver maybe be exactly what I'm look for... Something between iWeb and WordPress.

  Although I've not yet listened to this episode Victor, i don't have many good things to say about RW4. RW4 is not a complete web development application standing on its own. I've been trying to put up a simple site for my father for a few weeks and have found that I need to download extra plugins to get the functionality I need. No direct HTML editing is a big problem for me. The plugins almost always cost extra. Although I paid for RW and several plugins I should have saved it for Dreamweaver. In my opinion the lack of control in RW is not offset by ease of use.

  Since I typed my comments on my iPhone while waiting for a haircut today, I'd like to take this opportunity to clarify my statement about Rapidweaver 4. I think that the developers didn't intend for it to be a complete Web development application. Additional shortcomings include a poorly written manual, and a non-intuitive interface. I kind of feel like a hypocrite saying these things because I did PAY for it and more than a few plug-ins, but I remember thinking that the the trial version was crippled somehow and paying the shareware fee would "unlock" ease of use. I was sadly mistaken.
  Sorry for the additional rant, but I can't think of anything positive to say about RW4.

  Granted I have spent very little time with RW4, I downloaded the trial and started to feel my way around it. You're right, not very intuitive, but I do have a sense of the power behind the curtain, so to speak. Certainly this is a big step up from iWeb in allowing you to "step out of the box". As far as I can tell the trial is not crippled but rather limited to creating just 3 pages. This limitation will not get in the way of me fully exploring its capabilities. I do have a concern as to what may have been left out that will need supplementing via the payed add-ons.

  Right RW4 is not for the brand new person but I've seen pages done on it that were incredible. I'm working on a couple myself, so.. I'd say like we said in the interview it's not for the new but a great gap filler between iWeb and Dreamwever, in my opinion for the price it can't be beat.
