TAG WAR!!!

OMG, I just realized that the tag "Picaxe" was third, Under both Arduino, and even the silly tag "Robot"!

So, I am now re-editing all my robots that use Picaxe to fight evil open source system Arduino!

HAHAHAHAAA!

Arduino is not that bad, except PICAXE kicks it's butt! I don't get why Arduino is still the top tag if most people on this website seem to favor PICAXE. 

Yeah, well I was going to ask a question. Everything revolutionary in microcontrollers seem to come out of Europe after the Basic Stamp, but are PIC and ATMEL American? I'm pretty sure, and Picaxe and Arduino are based around those chips, so it seems EU is simply improving on a good idea. :P

Atmel sounds kinda Australian...

The TAG system has nothing to do with popularity. It is alphabetical.

The Arduino processor is more powerfull than the picaxe processor. The Picaxe is more popular here because it is easier to learn for people who have never programmed before. Microchip do make processors as good as the Arduino processors but they are not used by Rev. Ed.

Look at the tags... I tag mine as picaxe 28x1 or picaxe 40x1 that is different than just picaxe. A lot of my projects won't appear under picaxe because of that.

This is why you must enter your pages and make sure that you ALSO have a "picaxe" - tag!

This is a war and passive actions are actions as well. You want to support your team, don't you?

seperate multiple tags with a comma

a picaxe28x1 could easily be tagged as picaxe as well

same goes for that other mcu thingey

Things were so much simplier and quieter when Frits wasn't on LMR for months.
