This article is perfect example of PR Speak passed on as news.
in the article head, it says "PHP, the web’s most popular programming language, is coming to mobile" but then nowhere in articles author mentions about this except in the end where it says "Coming soon"!
WTH?
- protomyth 14y agoIt's a press release (well really a comment made to the press) used as a nice link-bait filler news article. Drew Curtis of Fark.com fame wrote a great book with this and more examples of news industry behavior that is even more true in the link-bait world. http://www.amazon.com/Its-Not-News-Fark-Media/dp/1592403662/ http://www.amazon.com/Its-Not-News-Fark-Media/dp/1592403662/
