Fun vs Productivity

Category: ProgrammingJoel Ivory Johnson @ 20:31

An off subject observation.  In looking over my CodeProject articles I can't help but notice a trend. If I write something that is of productive value (EX: Windows Mobile development without Visual Studio)it seems to get good ratings over time. But if I write something with no apparent productive values (like the Zune HD Level article) it gets ratings at a faster rate. What does that mean?  It sounds like it means people are more interested in articles about fun things than productive things.  I may take this into consideration in mu future articles. It's already influenced the direction of my next article.
