雖然 Matt Mullenweg 在文章裡都沒提到,但 WordPress 的興起其實跟當年 2004 年最大的 blog 軟體 Movable Type 自己出的包有很大的關係:
With the release of version 3.0 in 2004, there were marked changes in Movable Type's licensing, most notably placing greater restrictions on its use without paying a licensing fee. This sparked criticism from some users of the software, with some moving to the then-new open-source blogging tool WordPress. With the release of Movable Type 3.2, the ability to create an unlimited number of weblogs at all licensing levels was restored. In Movable Type 3.3, the product once again became completely free for personal users.
當年 hlb 在社團主機上用 Movable Type 架了服務讓大家寫,結果後來發生了 license 問題,大家就都順勢跑到 WordPress 上了;而等到 Movable Type 再次想放寬 license 的時候已經來不及了,大家都已經搬完了。
We, sphere.com, did this starting in 2006. After a year or so, we realized the only people using the service were looking to stroke their egos.
Ice rocket, and something else (I can’t remember the name) tried it at the same time and failed.
We pivoted, which ended up leading to some unspeakable horrors.
At any rate, good luck, hope it works better for you.
回到 Blog Surf 來看,在 About 頁上提到了 MarketRank,基本上就是服務作者提出來的演算法:
Points are calculated using Market Rank. They are a measure of the popularity of a post across online communities. Blog points are simply the sum of a blog’s post points.
