Well done. We hope it is useful to you and your clients. One small issue: While I agree with your conclusions re: predominance of WordPress in blog-focused sites, the chart you use for that stat is actually not right on point. That chart shows share of voice in the blogosphere, in other words which system is mentioned most frequently on blogs. It does not directly indicate preference in terms of the platform used. best, ric shreves water&stone Thanks for your coverage of the report — this sort of usage of the data is exactly what we hope to inspire by accumulating and publishing this data.
