ASP users flock to PHP in droves!

By Harry Fuecks | June 23, 2004 | PHP

The strange thing the PHP success story is it’s had, more of less, $0 spent on on advertising / marketing. So when I post a blog with a cheeky title like this one, it sticks out…

Anyway, real reason for this is just following on from here to point out that John Lim, at his new location – http://phplens.com/phpeverywhere/, has updated his ASP to PHP migration guide (a syntax cross reference with insights).

Apologies. I claim temporary insanity ;)

However an interesting read as always.

Just pay $200 “application fee”
Try to keep the site better than all my spam, buddy. You’re lowering the standard.

Didn’t appreciate the bogus headline.
But it does support the fact that a headline is a very powerful means of grabbing users attention – even when it’s done deceptivly.
