Video: Drupal vs. WordPress. Presentation given at LUGRadio Live USA, 2008. San Francisco, CA
This weekend Selena and I spoke at the charming and hospitable LUG Radio Live USA, in San Francisco, CA. The topic was Choosing between Drupal and WordPress. It was very civil. A few people have asked for the video of our presentation, so I've uploaded it above with a Flash embed. More ambitious full-on video file to come later.

These Links Matter to You. Tuesday, January 23, 2007
- wowza. Five kinda serious usability issues with Microsoft Vista. ( really well written)
- very funny podcast with mostly-Mac blog Daring Fireball's John Gruber, and Panic's Cabel Sasser (this was done at Macworld, soon after The Keynote. Lotsa Steve Jobs mocking that comes from a place of love.)
- For real. IBM announced gigantor social software suite, Lotus Connections. This kinda competes with Microsoft's gigantor Sharepoint. Many companies will pay for the privilege of buying these packages, and then learn how to use them and in some cases, if to use them. (see also, Enterprisey) Drupal's Dries Buytaert suggests an IBM/ Drupal collaboration.
- wait. that deserves its own bullet-point. Enterprisey. ("...a derogatory term describing sophisticated software architecture which is claimed to be good enough (robust, flexible, etc.) for use in enterprise applications, but in fact is merely excessively complex...")
