International Wordpress Day

Today is the unofficial official International Wordpress Day.

Allow me to say, Thanks!

I’ve been using Wordpress for 4 years and 3 months, and can’t imagine switching to another platform, like, ever.  But what’s so great about it?

  • It’s got a great community of support.  Whenever I have a problem with my blog, I know I can go to the Wordpress forums and learn that someone else has had my issue before, and solved it quickly.
  • It’s got a great community of plugin writers.  I use no less thatn 13 plugins, for everything from killing comment spam to inserting those cute images I have plugged in to my posts, to showing my flickr pictures (neglected as of late) in the sidebar.
  • It’s got a great community of themers.  I’d try out new stuff, but I’m an old grump and set in my ways… I changed themes over a year ago but I’m so set in my ways that the one I switched to looks almost exactly like the one I switched FROM.  :)

Congrats to you, Matt and the rest of the Automattic team, and here’s to your continued success.
