Every technology that comes out to simplify something eventually gets complicated. How do I install Magneto, WordPress and Joomla together in the same directory? Don’t ask why. How do you do it?
I’m just being s-assy. Great list of links, bookmarked for future complaining.
Nice list! There’s a lot I haven’ seen here – definitely bookmarked (and stumbled) this!
