Do we have to spend time pointing out the differences between WordPress and indie startups like Backtype, Songkick, and Adpinion? Microsoft spends a lot of time on security too, and I'm not saying they're dumb for doing it.

You used the word indie at the first comment, but I interpreted it as startup, because this discussion is about startups.

Most startups aren't indies.

For instance, Plentyoffish.com was a ONE person startup not so long ago with revenues of 1MM and 1B pageviews. Just imagine what a news recomendation site with TWO persons would be able to do. :)
