Automattic goes head-to-head with happytables

28 November 2012 by Siobhan McKeown

We’ve all noticed Automattic launch its recent sites targeted at verticals such as cities, weddings and music, so it’s no surprise to anyone that they just launched WordPress.com Restaurants. This puts them in direct competition with happytables, the restaurant web app created by our own Noel Tock. WordPress.com restaurants offers menus, maps, and reservations, provides users with a mobile version of the website, as well as all of the usual good stuff from WordPress.com.

Is There Life Beyond WordPress?

15 November 2012 by Zé Fontainhas

Jason Schuller, of Press75 fame, has posted his thoughts on life beyond WordPress. Two paragraphs that stick out:

For me, WordPress has become what used to be that “tiny cubicle” back in 2007. I feel trapped by something that is heading in a direction that I’m finding harder and harder to align my ideas of what a website solution should be.

and

My issues with WordPress stem from how complex and bloated it has become over the last few years. WordPress used to be this “charming” little piece of software that had you at “hello”. Now that all simplicity has been left behind in versions past, WordPress seems to be void of any personality. It no longer has any specific purpose or individuality that sets it apart from the rest, and that’s where I am lost.

It looks to me that if you add Jason’s post to John O’Nolan’s Ghost concept and Tony Perez’s post on WordPress commercialization, we seem to have a trend here.

Ghost: WordPress forked for blogging

5 November 2012 by Remkus de Vries

John O’Nolan, who worked as a Deputy Head of the WordPress UI Group a few years back, has jotted down his concept for a fork of WordPress. One that, in his words, will focus very specifically on blogging again instead of being a full blown CMS like WordPress itself.

I actually like some of the ideas he’s suggested in his post. I think it would be a huge undertaking to do such a fork, but it’s certainly a refreshing approach focussing on just blogging again. So what do you think, is John on the right track?

Check your server setup easily with phpinfo() for WordPress

4 October 2012 by Zé Fontainhas

We all know that phpinfo() is an easy way to see if a server has what it takes to run WordPress smoothly, but sometimes that is not enough. phpwpinfo provides an equivalent to the phpinfo() function that reports WordPress Requirements information about the PHP/MySQL/Apache environment, and offers suggestions for improvement. This tool allows you to quickly test environment server where you want to install WordPress.
