I’m heading down to Los Angeles for Pixelodeon, a two day online film festival. WordPress will have a small booth with myself, Micheal Adams, and Glenda Bautista, so if you’re a WP user loop by and say hi. We’ll have stickers and such. I’m told I’ll be speaking at 4 PM tomorrow, as well.

WWDC bbPress Meetup
Come meet myself, bbPress and WP hacker Michael Adams, Doug Stewart, Sam Bauers, at the WWDC bbPress meetup on Monday. I can’t RSVP yet because I’m locked out of Yahoo.
WP Contributors
Lloyd has a great post about all the people who contributed to WordPress 2.2, thank you! Open source is about so much more than code and licenses.
CNN on WP
Many of you have written in that CNN’s new Political Ticker blog is on WordPress. We know! They’re part of our VIP program which allowed them to launch quickly and serve millions of pageviews with no problems. The team there has launched dozens of blogs on the system, including ones for Fortune.com and CNN Money and is a real pleasure to work with. To the extent blogs are going to have an impact on the 2008 election they need to be able to reach millions of people in a short period of time without problems, I hope that WordPress.com provides that platform for folks.
MT OS
I am settled back from Greece and quite a bit happened while I was unplugged. I want to belatedly congratulate the Movable Type team for committing to GPL for MT4, and wish them best of luck in rebuilding their developer community. The news has been written about nearly everywhere, rightly so; Lisa has a blog round-up.
In Greece
The past few days I’ve been in Athens and now I’m on Ios island for the Greek Blogger Camp. Having a conference like this in one of the prettiest places in the world is a great idea (go Stefanos) and there is a lot of energy in the Greek blogosphere. Things are very early here, I’ve heard estimates that there are fewer than ten thousand Greek blogs, but it’s obvious that there is a lot of growth coming, they have all the right ingredients.
