The mental model is of a blogging application hyped up on steroids. It is very flexible, but I didn't find it particularly intuitive... there are lots of areas that required pseudo-code, and almost everything, yes, nearly everything in the app is thought of as a blog post. The strongest reason to use this application are that it is mature with a dedicated dev team supporting it -- you can actually call someone if something breaks (for the licensed versions, anyway). But I found that using MODx involved far less cerebral hemorrhaging... MODx just made more sense and has a better interface.
