What They’re Saying About EE

This is a on-going series of entries where I highlight EE experiences.

I’ve never met anyone who is actually working with #ExpressionEngine

Probably why no one has done a news site for the community either.

Update: In the comments, Adam points out the this was probably meany literally, not as a snark. We regret the jump to conclusions.

Yes, it was meant literally. And, yes, English is my second language :) There were a few funny answers like "We most definitely work with EE. But it could do with more exposure so people can see how great it is!" and "there are lots of folks using #eecms . Perhaps a local ee meetup to meet some.". I'm totally surprised, how could I know?

Posted by Ryan Irelan on 2012-04-01 20:16:38 Ryan, I think this is out of context/badly worded by a person for whom English may be a second language. See https://twitter.com/netzrocker/statuses/185652016507396096 for some clarity. I believe the actual sentiment is that the tweet is one of genuine surprise that he hasn't actually met (as in the real meaning of the word) anyone who works with a system he has heard so many great things about.
