Its like you read my mind! You appear to know so much about this, like you wrote the book in it or something. I think that you could do with some pics to drive the message home a little bit, but other than that, this is great blog. A great read. I will certainly be back.

@SpamBoy: Sure, the new search system was rewritten from the ground up. It now properly uses all database tools at its disposal (such as full-text searching) making it much faster than its predecessor. In addition to this, you can also paginate the search results which makes it much more presentable to the blog’s reader and finally, its become a framework such that plugins and addons can add/change/remove any part of it! Hope that answers your question :)

Movable Type Mondays is what I also had in mind. Although I enjoy writing here on WordPress, I’ve never been fond of it overall (mainly due it the numerous updates resulting from security holes).

While I love blogger, I may actually consider Movable Type (if I move back to self hosting my blogs, instead of allowing Google to have all of the fun).

I’m also a WordPress user, but was originally a Movable Type addict. Thanks for providing this kind of wrapup, as I enjoy seeing what I’m missing. Is it possible to elaborate on how the search function has been improved, as I am not aware of the previous version’s limitations/issues? Thanks!

I don’t like to think of it as pitting one platform versus another. There are certain jobs where one platform is better than another, and other situations where that same platform isn’t ideal at all.

Best to learn about them all, that way you always know what the best tool is (to a hammer everything is a nail…)

Even though I am a WordPress user, this is excellent news. A Movable Type Monday is a great addition in covering news in the blog software news.

It is not Monday today, now is it? ;)

Seriously though, you’re on to something, but I won’t confirm or deny anything just yet.

No, I’m just playing with you. Yeah, Mondays.

WordPress Wednesday…

Movable Type… Monday?

Or are we going to go head-to-head in a battle of the blog publishing platforms?
