wordpress 100K

Nearly three dozen of WordPress fans braved the elements, and dubious choice of a venue to celebrate the 100,000 downloads of WordPress, a fast growing open source weblogging software. The event was at the far end of Mission Street in a bar called Odeon. Cold rain made sure that the bar seemed on the other end of the world from Business 2.0’s offices in San Francisco’s financial district. Technorati, Feedster, and Sfist were well represented. At the end of the evening Photo Matt announced that he was setting up WordPress Inc, which will help support development of WordPress. More details later this week!
