Wow! WordPress is 10 years old today! Although I can’t say much for it being much of a role model…
If I ever have a daughter that grew up to be like WordPress, she’d…

1. Be popular enough to get used by 60% of all the boys (and girls) at school…
2. Be a world traveler, being logged into in over 120 different countries.
3. Be accessible to multiple users.
4. Be open enough to take all kinds of plugins in the backend.
5. Be willing to change into different sexy wares to mix it up from time to time.
6. Be totally dynamic, unlike those other static websites that just lie there.
7. Be willing to get a facelift when it’s apparent she’s looking a little old and used up.
8. Have weekend workshops around the world devoted to learning how to manipulate her better.
9. Give her goodies away for free, but know to charge for something when people really want it.
10. And…. Be a little susceptible to the occasional virus, but nothing a little Sucuri-cillin won’t clean up.

Fathers, don’t let your daughters to be like WordPress.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY WORDPRESS!!!

Edit: Here’s a post by Matt waxing poetic about his lovely creation.
