För den som vill ha en blogg
För den som vill ha en blogg är de vanligaste alternativen Wordpress och Blogger (Blogspot) med 48% respektive 39% marknadsandel (hur de nu kan uppskatta det). Andra alternativ är Tumblr, Substack, Livedoor, Hatena och Movable Type som alla har mellan 3 och 1 % av marknaden. Av dessa är det bara Wordpress som hör till de bästa alternativen för en blogg.

Code For the People
New short documentary (< 20 minutes) via Automattic about Open Source and the Future of the Web. If you're already working in open source there won't be anything new here, and if you're part of the WordPress community you might even wonder if the timing of this has anything to do with the WP Engine...

Pinpointing The Actual Problem
A blog post from Automattic lays out their decision to pull back on the WordPress project. But in the process, the company may have accidentally explained why competitors were able to one-up them.

When Benevolence Fades
The WordPress situation devolves further, which raises an obvious question: What does this mean for every other open-source project?

Missing The Human Touch
Tech and creativity once had a symbiotic relationship in the push towards innovation. As generative content matures, it feels like they’re starting to diverge. And that’s bad for creative people.

When Stewards Go Astray
A pair of recent controversies around the tech-publishing giant Automattic raise an important question in my mind: Do we have to worry about the future of WordPress?

20 Jahre
WordPress wurde 20 Jahre alt! 20 Jahre! Vor etwas mehr als 20 Jahren bin ich über Brett Taylors wunderbar nerdiges Blog gestolpert: webfroot.co.nz Am 04.

Why I think Marissa Mayer should buy Automattic
PandoDaily reports that Yahoo! has sold half its stake in Alibaba for $4.5 billion.

This makes a ton of sense, and makes it even easier to create a community of blogs. I’m looking forward to this – I could keep my main blog at benwerd.com focused on technology, as it is now, but start a separate blog about my hometown at oxford.benwerd.com, using the same installation. Not a bad deal. Of course, Automattic also own Andy Peatlin
