WordPress is Three Years Old
Wow, WordPress is a mere three years old today. It seems like it’s been going a lot longer, but the birth of what turned into WordPress was three years ago today.
Matt,
If you’re serious about forking b2 I would be interested in contributing. I’m sure there are one or two others in the community who would be too. Perhaps a post to the B2 forum, suggesting a fork would be a good starting point.Comment by mike — Saturday January 25, 2003 @ 3:58 pm
For a three-year-old its doing very well. It’s got a great team behind it, a massive community, a lot of big name endorsements, a book
(well a third of a book), or two, and a great future ahead.
Many happy returns!

[…] WordPress is celebrating its third birthday today, as posted by Mike Little on his blog. This post from one of the founders - Matt Mullenweg - shows how he first got the inkling to create such a platform. The future looks bright for WP as more and more people make the change. The development team behind the creation appear to work tirelessly to forever improve and update the software, and I am pleased to have found and created my weblog via it. […]

I got a copy of the Building Communities book recently. Haven’t had a chance to do much more than give it a quick skim yet, but I’m hoping to dig into it soon and put up a review. Looks good from what I’ve seen so far!
Even with all the changes between WP 1.5 and 2.0, the info in the book should still be about 95% applicable.

[…] Wordpress turns three Filed at 12:54 on 25th January 2006. Filed by sjhoward at 12:54 on Wednesday, 25th January 2006 under Reviews, Technology. The software that powers this very site, WordPress, is three years old today. I’ve been using it for over a third of its lifespan now (there’s a scary thought), and for my needs, it’s the best blogging software I’ve come across. I can’t give a full and completely fair review of every blogging tool out there, but as a previous user of three, I can offer some (possibly outdated) opinions on those. […]

[…] Where was I three years ago? What was I doing then? I’m still an architect and didn’t even know what the term blog mean. But three years ago, some folks decided to fork b2 and turned it into Wordpress. Look what it has become today. Good job guys. Still need a lot of works to do but a good job well done is a good job well done. It needs to be celebrated. So Matt, Donncha, Mike, Andy, cheers to you all. Open the champagne bottle and send some for me here

Just to set the record straight, there’s another WordPress book too: WordPress 2 (Visual QuickStart Guide) by Maria Langer and Miraz Jordan.

I been using wordpress about 2 years now. Install on a Linxu computer. It works very good. I like to type what I do each day and word press is so good to do this. It’s neat I have about 2 years in it now and I can look back at some things with a search.
It’s neat you can run it on a server in here house or LAN. Can open a port so other can see it on the web.
I don’t want to give out my Website here because it’s going though my LAN. Mosly just so my family can read my wordpress.
Thank you for word press!
