I really admire Matt Mullenweg, the genius behind WordPress. Born in Houston, Texas, Matt is a tech wizard who co-founded WordPress in 2003 when he was 19. His journey is like a digital adventure, starting with a passion for blogging and evolving into a platform that powers a one third of the internet, including this blog. Matt is not just a tech person; he's also a proponent of open-source software and a champion for a more democratized web, which is a big part of what drew me to the web and is still one of the things I love about it. With his visionary leadership, WordPress has become the go-to platform for bloggers and businesses alike. Cheers to the minds shaping the digital landscape.
Watching this long form interview, got me excited once again on creating vs consuming and the power of a free and open web. I am often encouraged by listening to intelligent and interesting conversations like this one.
“How am I complicit in creating the conditions that I say I don’t want?”
