This blog is powered by WordPress – the phenomenally popular and powerful open source blogging CMS (content management system).

As with most open source initiatives WordPress has enormous online community contributing to it and improving it on an ongoing basis in the form of plugins, themes and more.

We even have some pretty clued up South Africans like Adii and Mark who have made WordPress their business.

Recently Tyler and Jason announced that they were organising WordCamp SA 2008 in Cape Town, and that none other than Matt Mullenweg, founder of WordPress and geek supremo, would be attending. The gathering will be a coming together of geeks, developers, designers, entrepreneurs and more to discuss issues relating to the Web, social media, WordPress and more. It ought to be brilliant!

I will be there, as will Cerebra in the form of a small sponsorship. I think there might still be one or two places available so if you want in on the action, pull in!
