Jane Wells asks if she's a platformist.  Well, considering that her blog will only accept comments from those who have wordpress.com accounts [I won't remind you that Matt Mullenweg censors accounts] and she didn't bother to mention which Movable Type designer she slighted, I guess the answer to that [Read the rest of this article...]

Oh lookie.  There's going to be a Charlotte WordCamp on Nov 15th here in Charlotte.  I wonder if I should go.I'm wondering why they aren't publicizing it.  Kind of reminds me on how Automattic does theirs.I'm also wondering why Host Gator is a sponsor and why not a local [Read the rest of this article...]

A few days ago, two of my posts here about mediamax/ thelinkup got listed over at Techcrunch.  I'm happy to say MovableType took the extra traffic without issue.  Had about an extra three thousand visitors each day for a couple of days. (Played havoc with my Google Adsense numbers though. [Read the rest of this article...]

Looks like I "offended" Matt Mullenweg a bit too much.  Write a pair of posts describing how they have ignored a long list of splog reports and I now have my wordpress.com account suspended and my posts in the support forums edited without permission.  But in addition to that, [Read the rest of this article...]

A few days ago, I wrote about a splog over on wordpress.com that I had reported a number of times that, after a pair of "Report as Spam"  and a support ticket still remained online.  It took three hours after blogging about it but it finally came down.Folks have [Read the rest of this article...]

Anyone else think it's strange that Matt takes the time to apoligize for a response from options but yet rudeness from an employee directed towards another volunteer goes unanswered?   edit: By the way, I noticed that root has been marked as inactive as well.  I haven't seen anyone else [Read the rest of this article...]

Yep, it's yet another post on the topic of Sponsored links found within WordPress themes.  Now, before I begin, let me state my opinion on the matter:  Personally, I don't care.  I can see why some folks consider such links to be "evil" and I can understand why some folks [Read the rest of this article...]

Considering how bad things have become with Wordpress, one has to wonder if they're going to become the new Enron. Considering they have no ethics policy in place and how some employees use that to their advantage, one has to wonder what's going to occur. And, yes, I can give [Read the rest of this article...]

David expresses his annoyance recently when 6 of the top 10 posts over in wp.com land were all from the CNN blogs. As I write this, there's five posts listed in the top 10. It's a pity that Automattic feels that news reports from sites (I wouldn't call them blogs [Read the rest of this article...]
