"Even Apple have dodgy bits of PHP bolted on to their web site.http://is.gd/1i8tH Still, got to be better than WebObjects, right?"

I find that kind of comments at least 3 times per week :-/
Most of the people on twitter don't even know what apps are and aren't WebObjects (nor what WebObjects even IS, for that matter) ... Go do a search -- they bitch about the iPhone developer forum, for instance, which is JSP/Servlet.

I think most of them blame WO for everything just because of either the URLs (I saw a couple of stupid comments about how "bad", in their opinion, WO URLs are) or because the Apple Online Store is down when they release new or updated stuff... But it's funny to see RoR/PHP people blame WO for scabality but Twitter generate timeouts or "overlead" messages everyday and they just have to deal with 140 chars message :-) Imagine if they had to deal with the same size of content as iTunes...

What makes you think they don't? They most probably got more users, more concurrent requests and more shared content (between users).

Which takes them to a range of problems that I'm not sure are fun to do with WO. WO is really cool with creating really complex interactioning, user-owns-data, lotsa-editing type apps. For a lot of other things, it probably creates at least as much problems than it solves...
