WordPress developers Ryan Boren, Donncha O Caoimh and Andy Skelton will be working with Matt at Automattic. Matt had recently left his job at CNET to work on WordPress full-time. Automattic Inc. is a bootstrapped startup from a handful of people passionate about making the web a better place. So far we're best known for our work on WordPress and other projects but we have a lot of other interesting things in the pipeline as well. We are strong believers in Open Source and the vast majority of our work is available under licenses like the GPL. We are not seeking funding. tags: wordpress (T) , automattic (T) , akismet (T) – posted by Scott Beale on Wednesday, December 21st, 2005 Comments RSS feed | Trackback URL [...] [...] Yesterday WordPress founder Matt Mullenweg announced the launch of Automattic, an umbrella company for all of the various WordPress projects, including: the WordPress open source blog tool, the hosted version of WordPress: wordpress.com, the comment spam plug-in Akismet and the forum script bbPress.

Han vil udvikle sine egne projekter fuld tid. Jeg kan kun håbe at han får vind i sejlene og jeg glæder mig til at se hvad han kan gøre med WordPress. Selv har jeg da flere ting på ønskelisten som jeg mener kunne være fede. Michael går helt amok med sit Invader design (link til binary). Det ser bare for fedt ud. Cris Pirillo har gang i gada.be som jeg ikke lige ved hvad jeg skal syntes om endnu men det ser spændende ud. Han mener dog også at Web 2.0 ikke rigtig har nogen betydning endnu. FeedLounge, som er en online feedreader, forventer jeg mig også en del af. Den skulle være godt gennemtænkt. Flock er den nye browser som der har været en vild hype om. Jeg skal lige notere at jeg stadig er så blank at jeg først opdagede omtalen i sidste uge. Ajax er såvidt jeg kan gennemskue en form for asynkront Javascripting. Det vil altså sige man kan opdatere og navigere inholdet uden at skulle opdatere siden (F5). Det må være sådan dr.dk’s navigation på forsiden er skruet sammen. Rui har mere om det her og her.
