Seymore is not only my first publicly available Rails application, it is my solution for easy content management. My vision of Seymore is that rather than having a separate administration section for managing content, content management functions should be available throughout the site so users are able to contextually and comfortably manage their content.

Initial feedback is great and exactly what I was looking for. Fellow developers as well as non-technical users were impressed with the ease Seymore (coupled with FCKeditor, which does a lot of the heavy lifting from the user's perspective) brought to content management.
