So what is Content Management?

"…a combination of formal, well defined rules, processes and system architecture that allows Web authors, publishers and end users in companies and organisations, to create, publish and manage all elements of a Content, such as text , graphics, etc., and to maintain integrity over their Content on a decentralised basis…where the Content could be displayed on an Intranet, an Extranet or an Internet site"

Content Management is about managing the content separately from its presentation. The same content can then be presented in many different ways on different devices if required.
