Sau nu neaparat Wordpress, cat firma creata de Matthew “Matt” Mullenweg, Automattic. Matt este creatorul Wordpress, dupa parerea mea unul dintre cele mai bune CMS-uri la ora actuala (desi e folosit cel mai des ca suport de blog). Stiu, nu este la fel de complex precum Drupal sau Joomla/Mambo, dar poate fi folosit foarte usor de cineva care doreste un sistem de editare site-uri nu prea complex.
Revenind la titlu, insa.
Matt a vandut o parte din compania care detine Wordpress, Wordpress.com (un serviciu gen blogger.com), Akismet (un serviciu antispam) unor investitori.
Recently, I made the decision to sell a minority stake in the company to a few select partners who I think are going to bring a lot of value to the business far beyond mere dollars. This isn’t going to change how the business is run, or the people involved with it, but it will allow us to take better advantage of the opportunities before us and also for us to keep our promise to every one of you to maintain a fast, stable, and innovative platform in the long term.
Dupa SixApart, care a fost finantata deja, iata ca si WordPress primeste finantare. Ma intreb daca vom asista la o versiune platita de WordPress (sper sa nu) sau daca vor incepe noi proiecte cu finantarea primita.

Si eu ma gandeam la aceeasi chestie in timp ce citeam post-ul: cat de nasol ar fi sa apara versiunea platita a wordpress-ului…
