WordPress has got some prominent pixels recently, in the form of interviews with Matt Mullenweg. His conversation with Tim Ferris was to a large extent about simplicity, and included the following quote. “Simplicity can have a negative impact when it’s the crude reduction of nuances beyond appreciation, a Matisse presented as a 16-color GIF.”
