GDriveCMS allows you to use Google Docs' familiar interface for adding content to a mobile-optimized web page.
Simply create a Google Document with whatever content you want, publish it to the web (in the File menu),
and render it through this script.
1. Create a document in Google Drive (Google Docs)
2. Go to File > Publish to the web
3. Click Start Publishing & check Automatically republish
4. Grab the document link (URL) in that dialog
5. Go to this page with ?url=DOCUMENTLINK in the URL
ex. http://dev.timwis.com/gdrivecms/?url=https://docs.google.com/document/pub?id=1Ewf7USaYnkqrp9moUNMipuy_THA-U_p8k44F2MzIWlQ
(Please excuse the DomDocument usage. I'd have used a better DOM Parsing library but I wanted to keep this very light-weight.)
