This Ask MetaFilter thread on blogware gives WordPress surprisingly little love. There’s not much substantive there, but it’s interesting to see how a subset of the MF audience reacted to the question. (Metafilter registration is still closed, so if you want to add to that thread you can’t.)
err…
I’ll assume most of the comments have been added afterward, because as i see it now, that thread gives WP a *lot* of love. Granted, the whole thread has nearly no substance whatsoever (in one direction or another), but if you do a quick breakdown, you got:
– 1 neutral answer.).
– 2 haters including one who gives the ever useless completely-missed-the-spot answer (i.e.: “- what do you guys recommend: a), b) or c) ?” ” – I recommend d), without a doubt, even though it’s obvious you’re looking for free software and d) is not”
– Anil trying to plug his company’s soft (even with a public disclosure, this is still a bit pathetic, imho). Not offering more than “I recommend it” as a reason.
and…
– 1, 2, 3, 4 pro-WP comments. All of them slightly more articulate than the remainder (though more could be done)
So let’s not be dramatic :), WP is shown some love…
It’s looks like people jumped in after this post, which wasn’t my intention but interesting.
