While I can provide a few reasons of the cuff, I doubt I can be as comprehensive as Hal Fulton [Author of the "Ruby Way"]. In the interest of keeping things DRY, here's an article that gives 37 reasons :-) http://rubyhacker.com/ruby37.html

As regards your question on Wordpress, I'm curious as to how you got the impression that we're biased towards any platform. Yes, we like Java and Ruby more – because they're better languages to code in.

But we try and use tools which serve our objectives better. Wordpress, is I believe, a very good example of a highly usable product. And to that end, it has served us very well. In addition, there's also a great community out there that supports it.

We bought our theme from WooThemes and are quite happy with the overall look and feel our site. And we've received positive feedback to that effect as well.

If we're able to build something like this in a few weeks from scratch to completion using Wordpress with just one developer, without involving a professional designer, its obviously a good bet.

As regards UserThoughts, I'm sorry you got the error. Can you please write to “support@userthoughts.com” with details, so we can help you out? Thank you.

Also Userthoughts gives me some server error. Wonder how is that? I wonder why you make your own website on wordpress when you stress so much on the fact that you are basically a Ruby/Java company.
