What a gorgeous, content-packed and usable Plone site this is! Jon Stahl outlines the development of the newly launched snowleopard.org site in this post from his WordPress blog.

My brilliant colleagues at ONE/Northwest and our talented collaborators at LightSky Designs and RagingWeb just helped Snow Leopard Trust launch their new website.

It's a beautiful site, with a ton of great content and some eye-popping photos of these magnificent cats and the communities they live among...

...Like all of the websites we do, Snowleopard.org is powered by Plone, the most powerful and easy-to-use open-source content management system around. Plone makes it easy for Snow Leopard Trust staff to maintain a large, complex site.

It is not often that I encounter a Plone site that really delights me with great design. In fact, once you've been developing in Plone for a while, most Plone sites look pretty same-ish and un-designed. The work, talent, and judgement that has gone into snowleopard.org is exemplary: great information design, great graphical and interface design, and some well-judged software and integration.

An example to us all :o)

Well done, everyone involved!

Thanks to generous support from the Leona M. Geyer Charitable Trust, we are proud to present a completely new www.snowleopard.org! Here at the Snow Leopard Trust we've been burning the midnight oil to bring you this new website, jam-packed with information about our conservation programs, the scientific research we support and carry out, and all our other activities.

But wait, there's more! If you've always wanted to learn more about the countries where we work, the people who live there, or snow leopards themselves, then this is the place for you! Stick around for a few minutes and explore...

By the way, I've begun to collect bookmarks to interesting or unusual plone sites in my del.icio.us "plone-site" tag.
