Mullenweg Indicates ver 30 Percent f Blogs Are Spam
WebProNews – Mar 3, 2008
"Divide the second number by the first multiply by 100 and you get 31. Almost one-third if you round up or three out of ten if you’d prefer to round down. That’s high and that’s ignoring McCarthy’s "more than" and the possibility that WordPress missed some splogs.
PHP ptimized For Windows Server 2008
InformationWeek – Mar 3, 2008
The IIS Web server is now built into Windows 2008 and the two companies made certain the PHP interface to FastCGI worked smoothly Gutmans said in an interview. Zend’s PHP now supports CardSpace Microsoft’s identity management system so users of PHP applications may gain online services after being authenticated and awarded the proper privilege level. The Windows 2008 certification also means Windows as well as Linux servers can be expected to host such PHP applications as the Mambo Web site content management system or the WordPress blog publishing system Gutmans said. Previously PHP “didn’t run as well as it should on Windows” said Gutmans despite the fact that 75% to 80% of PHP users were developing on Windows workstations. When they deployed their Windows-based applications to production their performance was disappointing and they tended to develop on Windows and deploy under Unix or Linux. Now the three platforms should be available on a more equal footing he said. The two companies have started work on a SQL Server driver for Zend Core that will make interfacing PHP Web applications to SQL Server a more straightforward task Gutmans said.
