  • Hey there im from germany and in many things connected to complete web experience we are way behind (e.g. earnings through blogs). but i think people moving away from the web cause they dont trust the site ops, they dont trust the government, they dont trust anything between the computer and the server. In germany this is a big problem mainly because this is becoming true. I want to have a good web experience and i will use the tools which let this experience become true. if this is a desktop software ok i will use it! if this is a webservice ok i will use it.

    i think everything is clear now from my point of view.

    have a nice day

    Best Regards

  • I think that the 'move away from the web' is kinda misleading 'cause it means that we were already in the web and we now changed and move away, which, clearly, is not the case.

    The hype (and vision) so far was pointing a lot towards the all-web experience but reality is different.

    As far as the Wordpress decision is concerned, the recent trend of Adobe Air clients for microblogging services might, IMHO, be the inspiration and the reason behind this decision.
  • "fear to destroy something"

    Some clients fear to destroy something at administration panel.
    For others is the adminstration panel too complex.

    I know a blogger who has 35 blogs! He needs windows life writer to publish posts in a comfortable way.

    Others write posts at work - to write with the life writer is better, ;)
