OK, so I’ll admit, I was the author ;), but I really do think we will see this happening this year:
In 2008 we will see open source CMS Web sites become mainstream.
There is a confluence between the development of CMSs (making them easier to use and more reliable) and the popularization of open source software (making it a more viable and acceptable option). People who want a Web site, whether for a blog about their kids, hard hitting news (both Drupal), voting for a candidate or to get some smack down (both Joomla) will choose a FOSS solution. A critical mass has been achieved of higher profile sites that have made it a credible option, as evidenced by a “Top Web Gadgets of 2007″ article from NPR.
What do you think?
