Happy 5th Birthday Wordpress!

The wildly popular Wordpress blogging software (which runs this very blog) turns 5 years old tomorrow, Tuesday May 27/08. It’s certainly come a long way in that time. I personally started using it at around version 1.2 (or was it 1.4?) back when calendars and blogrolls in the sidebar were cool and there wasn’t an ad to be seen.

Anyways, the wordpress team will be having a meat-world party in San Francisco at 111 Minna, starting at 9PM. You can get the full details and RSVP on Upcoming.org or on Facebook. For those of you on the other side of the planet that Wordpress has helped make a little smaller and friendlier, there’s a party in Sydney as well.

Happy Birthday Wordpress!
