WP + MLB
Batters Up: Major League Baseball Now on WordPress.com. MLB's blogging system used to be powered by Movable Type, and about 15,000 blogs switched over to WordPress.com as part of this. It's an honor and delight to have so many great bloggers joining the family. They're also in good company with VIP…
About.com switching to WordPress
Sheila Coggins just published an interview with me on About.com Weblogs, which came out fairly well and talks a little bit about new efforts like WordPress.com. The timing for the interview couldn't be better. As people watching closely may have already started to notice, About.com has begun switching their sites…
WordPress and the Top 100
Pingdom writes WordPress completely dominates top 100 blogs. I'm quoted in the article saying that the 49% marketshare we have among top blogs will continue to grow, and I'd like to expand on that a bit because it's a strong statement. Typepad and Blogsmith, the two platforms that dropped the…
That’s the second big news in one day. Congrats too!
WOW
congrats man
you must be the proudest papa these days
“You know it makes sense”
Take that, MT!
WordPress is the best!
This is the best market trend which I’ve heard.
Congratulations Matt.
Not only that Microsoft switches Live Spaces to WordPress, now we have Adobe following their footsteps.
Congrats Matt & WordPress,

1,200 blogs – phew that is a big migration! Congrats.
Thank you! It was challenging, but overall was a fun, interesting project
Nice. Good to see the change.
That’s great to hear for WordPress.
Yes, you must be very proud of the “little project” you started from some forked code! I bet you didn’t imagine that you’d see so many people on blogs run by the software you worked on and the team you lead back when you got started!!
I hope people see your story and remember that starting with a small idea, huge dreams and empires can be realized.
Congratulations!
Oh that is great!
just as an fyi – any Adobe Indesign file can be converted to WordPress with PageZephyr.
hohoho!
1200 blogs? Wow! Never knew Adobe guys liked to write so much!
Great going Matt and WordPress – another nice portion added to the 12% WP Internet Pie!
Here’s hoping someday it would be above 50%. Cheers!:)
I think the ‘story behind the story’ is the real big news here; a year back Adobe purchased Business Catalyst which is a CRM solution with blogging capabilities. Now Adobe doesn’t use its own Platform/Service but chooses WordPress for it’s Blogs!
Well done to all from WordPress!
Matt,
Can we expect a more strategic alliance between WordPress and Adobe after learning of their internal blogging platform decision?, which I think is wonderful!
Specifically as an Instructional Technologist I would love to see WordPress tools from Adobe that would embellish WordPress blogging development?
For example, e-Learning Suite 2 and WordPress integration so I could build an educational blog and include Adobe’s value add right along with that effort

No plans currently, but I believe the latest version of Dreamweaver has some WordPress-related features.
You could also use Adobe Contribute software to publish to WordPress powered blogs.
