Post non-phpwcms related topics here - but I don't want to see "hey check this or that other cms". Post if you have a point or worthwhile comment, don't post just to increase you post count!

2 more heavy questions

Post by Stim »

What is different between forum and blog?

Cant I post all my stuff in some forum? I think blog is very hard to understand and you can if you want post all your stuff in forum I suppose? Forum is also structured so you easy can find all topics or other stuff you locking for-

Blog is as I guess very popular but my questions 2 is way? I don’t really understand?

Here is a tentative to differentiate the blogs from forums:

Blog:
====
  • + person is prime (for example "Oliver's blog")
    + is personal, this means that one person write articles
    + other persons often can comment the articel but not write own articles in same blog
    + it is more to state his opinion to a the rest of the world
    + is lacking of sofisticate search functions
    + timely development is main logic of development of blog (diary)
Forum:
=====
  • + topic is prime (for example "phpwcms support forum")
    + is made for a community (like here) to exchange information and knowledge
    + all community members can open topics (depending on rights)
    + best possible search function is important
Best regards
