Pros Vs. Cons

This blog caught my eye. Someone originally posted the question of whether Vanilla 2.0 is superior to bbPress and other forums already in use. This question merits some thought when you consider this: the explosion of Web 2.0's has created a market in which users, I believe, can be picky about what 2.0's they use. If a user doesn't particularly care for certain attributes of a program, he/she can simply drop it and probably find a different one which suits their taste. The Web 2.0 market parallels the shopping industry in that a customer has a multitude of options of where to shop--Wal-Mart, Target, Pamida, etc. This makes for an environment where businesses must compete to stand apart and ultimately earn profit. The same thing exists in the Web 2.o arena now--this benefits the user.
