At this time of year, I nor­mally say Happy Birth­day to WordPress. After all it was 6 years ago today I made the com­ment on Matt’s blog that star­ted the whole thing off.

How­ever last year, Matt held a birth­day party for WordPress’ 5^th in May. May 27^th to be pre­cise, which is the anniversary of the first WordPress release.

If the birth of WordPress was the first release, then I guess I’ve been cel­eb­rat­ing the con­cep­tion. 

Regard­less, WordPress has come a long way. The baby  has grown into a world beat­ing piece of soft­ware. It’s so good I’ve bet the house on it (more of that soon).

Any­way “Happy Con­cep­tion” to WordPress and I hope there are many more to come.
