Comments on: Almost done with Wordpress http://www.johnon.com/62/slow-wordpress.html I think there's an opinion on that subject lying around here somewhere....

I suppose that since we came to the same conclusion re: control of the coding of a site, we both have to waste a bunch of time every year or so to re-confirm it. I have so much experience "playing" with open source CMS and directory systems, with no direct practical gain, that I made a website about it. That site monetizes pretty well. Go figure. PS: As for "out of nowhere" that's a deceptive appearance (necessary illusion?). I've been in the game many years anonymously. Maybe I'll post about that.... Thanks Ben, and thanks for stopping by.

I have so much experience “playing” with open source CMS and directory systems, with no direct practical gain, that I made a website about it. That site monetizes pretty well. Go figure.

PS: As for “out of nowhere” that’s a deceptive appearance (necessary illusion?). I’ve been in the game many years anonymously. Maybe I’ll post about that….

You know something is wrong when it's quicker to do it by hand. I have been using a cms at a company I have been doing some work for and it take at least 6 times what it would with static html and you have less control. Stupid. Old is young again. Love your blog btw, a good reflection of the John Andrews that started prolifically posting out of nowhere over at TW. Cheers! Hi John,
