One Year of Wordpress.com - Amazing!
Have you ever wondered who Matt, Donncha, Lorelle, Ryan etc (the names that appear by default in your WP blogroll) are? These guys are the brains behind Wordpress, and I think it’s time to give them a thumbs up for all their effort, not only in developing the self-hosted version of Wordpress, but also the hosted solution now called Wordpress.com.
The occasion? Wordpress.com is now one year old! Happy Birthday Wordpress!
Here’s a quote from Lorelle’s blog:
The first three months were definitely shaky. A toddler in diapers, moving from place to place by hanging onto the furniture of the full version of WordPress, Wordpress.com lurched its way into the path of bloggers. The server crashed repeatedly, the interface melted, things jumped around, posts were lost, and code flew in every direction. Even loyal WordPress users and abusers were not impressed, turning up their noses - even with “free” signs hanging from every virtual wall. Yet, those who believed lined up behind Wordpress.com and pushed and pulled it into the powerful blogging service it is today.
