Paul Boag, the founder of UK Web design agency Headscape, has a great article posted over at Smashing Magazine on 10 Harsh Truths About Corporate Websites.

The list is a great collection of ideas to give individuals in large organizations a better understanding about running and/or creating a corporate website.

Although all have great value, two that stuck out to me the most were:

• Your website cannot appeal to everyone
• A CMS is not a silver bullet

The entire article is a great read and will help everyone become aware of certain harsh truths about corporate websites.
