# Adobe Enters Blogosphere

[Sarah O'Keefe](http://scriptorium.com/palimpsest/) just told me the news: Adobe has joined the blogosphere. More importantly, the RoboHelp development team just started a blog: [http://blogs.adobe.com/techcomm/](http://blogs.adobe.com/techcomm/)

This is one of the best moves Adobe has made. I guess I was too impatient with my comments on their inaccessibility in [my last post](https://idratherbewriting.com/2007/01/25/adobe-seminar-nice-connection-and-demo-but-questions-were-filtered/). It will be interesting to see how many people use their blog as an access point to provide feedback, recommendations, and comments.

With Vivek's [first post](http://blogs.adobe.com/techcomm/2007/01/my_first_post.html), I see that the blog has the comment-moderation feature turned on. But hey, maybe that won't prove to be an issue.

I also see that they are using [Movable Type](http://movabletype.com/) as the blogging platform. For enterprise-wide blogging, Movable Type is the dominant platform. WordPress came out with their first edition of [WordPress Multi User edition](http://mu.wordpress.org/)), but it is in infancy compared with Movable Type's enterprise edition. Movable Type might have cornered the blogging market had they not switched to a paid model and if their blogs were easier to install.
