I pointed out the "designed" thing on my blog because our guy Mike just gave the product a long overdue facelift (see logo above sent by AOL tipster) and it's a trip to hear Jason get credited with design/code/architecture. Jason had a ton of product input and he and I were partners in both Weblogs and Blogsmith. He deserves a bunch of credit for the platform -- that was just worded funny. Now if Jason still gets credit when I launch my Craigslist-killer in April without any involvement from Jason at all...well then I'll just shake my head in disgust and lose all my faith in the blogosphere.

In fact, the primary reason Brian and I partnered with each other on Weblogs, Inc. was because we knew that in order to build a scale blogging network we would need to have our own custom blogging platform and Brian has been developing CMSs for almost a decade! I would appreciate it if you could correct above.

It's awfully difficult to read. Duncan…just a word from the “web usability institute” :-) …put some paragraph breaks in that post man. It’s awfully difficult to read.

You can just ping Brian and sign some paperwork. Well It’s technically already out there as far as business use.

Does AOL's left-hand not know what its right-hand is doing? BTW, having blogged at WIN for several months using this platform, I can tell you its sweet. Not my favorite perhaps, but sweet nonetheless. Duncan, I just had a brief email conversation with Blogsmith’s chief architect, Brian Alvey, and he says this is all news to him.
