What is Fusion News?
Fusion News Management System is a powerful and easy to use news management script. Setting up Fusion News, from uploading to being able to post a blog or news entry takes less than 10 minutes, even for the most inexperienced user. From there, customisation and integration of the news into your website is a simple breeze. Features such as the commenting system and 'tell a friend' page will allow for website visitors to interact with each other to discuss the news at hand! In addition to all that, Fusion News is completely flatfile (uses files only), so no database is needed at all.
