开源软件的一个问题就是没有销售数字显示有多少人使用它,我们知道 WordPress.com 已经有3百万个博客了。我们知道 EduBlogs 有了20万了。但是有多少人使用自己安装的 WordPress 博客呢?
现在,Automatic 更新通知系统对这个问题有了答案,这个数字非常巨大,已经有260多万个 WordPress 独立博客。

The huge problem with open source software is that there are no sales numbers to show how many people are using it. We know that WordPress.com hosts over three million blogs. We know EduBlogs powers nearly 200,000. But how many sites are hosted using the original, downloadable, self-installed and managed version of WordPress?
Now, the automatic update notification system in WordPress gives answers to that question and others. Most hugely: over 2.6 million sites are hosted on WordPress.
