Desphunn simply because it's yet another regurgitated article that doesn't say anything particularly interesting. The original thread on HighRankings should have been sphunn IMO.

Some of the few conclusions drawn on the article are dubious at best:

"50 subdomains would be not much easier to manage and promote than in the above case plus you have more chances to be penalized for spamming the index."

Really? Since when? 50 crap internal pages have as much chance of being penalised as 50 crap sub domain pages - and 50 good internal pages have as much chance of ranking well as 50 good sub domains.

If it hadn't been posted on SEJ it probably wouldn't have made it to the Sphinn homepage IMO.
