I think that all three sites (perlmeme.org/, learn.perl.org and
perl-begin.berlios.de/) look like most of the sites back when I had an
Amiga 1200 :eek:
You can pick just about any website of any other "web" programming
language and it's much much better. Not just from design point, but more
importantly content.
Perl needs better marketing/PR. And beside sites for beginers it needs
better advocation to business type people.
It also has lot's of misconceptions behind it - that should also be
addressed. Stuff like scripting language, slow, perl = cgi, cobol of the
web ...
Now instead of insulting each other, maybe we can actualy start doing
something about it in a more productive way?
BTW. Is there anyone on this list who is familiar with Public Relations?
PS. Don't get me wrong - there is much more to Perl than just web
programmig, but it's one of it's bigest markets - also the one that
brougth worlds attention to it.
