The future of Wordpress?
The future is coming, the question is really what will it be and where will we end up? I’m absolutely fascinated by the progress on Wordpress, the community that has sprouted up around it, its proliferation of web standards, and the future of web apps. Wordpress isn’t the root of things like AJAX, CSS, and more but it is certainly a great application of love, ingenuity, and idealism to sprout out of the open-source web.
I recently acquired an invite to host a blog at Wordpress.com and I’m still wondering what power this email/”golden ticket” holds.
This is all basically just web philosophizing which doesn’t do much of anyone any good sometimes. I’m equally as curious to see the direction K2 is heading and where it inevitably takes the Wordpress community. Certainly, the time and effort that Michael & Chris are putting in shall prove helpful in stretching the Wordpress design muscles at The Labs. And thus, I explain why the capricious fluttering of default themes for the SWL blog, between the home-brewed Elvgren and the evolving K2.
If you happen to have an invite I would very much appreciate it if you could send it to me. I currently have not had a chance to set up a blog due to a lack of hosting but I have always liked the idea of wordpress. If you can I would very much like to get an invite to the service.
Sonic,

I’ve received a number of emails about the wordpress.com invite (I only have one) and I’m still figuring out the best way to go about donating it to the larger wordpress community. I’ll email you privately.
