Mini Rant: Blogbox.com

I don’t get it, if Laszlo becomes open source, why does all hell has to break loose? A search on Google or Technorati tells you how much fuzz these tiny little useless boxes have created.
What in the world happen to MT Plugins, they have tons of these so-called boxes. Why do I want a photoblox if I have Flickr, a linkblox if I have del.icio.us, a weatherblox or a clockblox when everyone is reading my blog using some news reader?!
This can’t be what Laszlo was made for, now can it? Is it all they could come up with? Bloggers don’t care about proof-of-concepts using X platform, or Y language, give them something that works and that’s it. You want to market for geeks? Give something to be proud of.
I am very unfamiliar with what Laszo is, but I will assume it’s because those who paid for it are mad because they had to pay for it before, and now it’s open source.
