PHP Frameworks popularity estimation
About 2.5 years passed since I posted the development activity comparison of major PHP frameworks. Since then I’ve got about 4.5k hits from search engines, which IMHO is not such a bad sample to summarize people’s interest in each of them.
Again, no conclusions – just pure numbers 🙂

Seva,
What I see from these numbers is that Zend has the highest interest ratio 🙂 Which is not such a surprise 😉 At least not for me 🙂

Right, Zend’s popularity is known and trivial. What’s more interesting is other frameworks’ relations.
