Up until September 2003 I was the developer for PHP applications for this site. To the best of my
knowledge the message board is the only thing using PHP.
Prior to the AOL/Time Warner merger the majority of interective content on the site was driven by
PHP. But after the merger all developement started migrating to Vignette, I would estimate this was
around 2001 or 2002. Occassionally if they needed quick turn around time a poll or sweepstakes
would be done in PHP. The same holds true for kidswb.com. My knowledge is a little over a year
old, but when I left my former position there was very little WB development being done in PHP. I
went from spending 30+ hours a week doing it to well under 5.
This was slightly off topic, but I would not use this site as an example of something that has a lot
of php driven content.
