Oh dear, oh dear. Never thought something as pedestrian as me not getting on with a piece of software would launch such debate (1, 2). We seem to have stepped on some toes. It’s enough to drive this n00b away from the tool and its l33t community. For the record, let me state what I like about WordPress: 1. PHP. Yes, because it’s fast. 2. Its distinction between posts and pages. 3. It’s free.But it’s not about code or tools or plugins. It’s about blogging.
