What a Marketing Concept

What an Internet marketing concept! Make the very best blogging software possible and then give it away to anyone who wants it, for free! That’s right, we’re talking about WordPress, again.
Sure it’s already been done by others. Mark Andreessen gave away Netscape. Microsoft gave away the Internet Explorer browser (cough!). There are others.
Currently, the team at Ubuntu are giving away one of the finest Linux Desktop and Server distributions we’ve ever seen. We like Ubuntu so much, that except for one Windows system in our office used for some legacy applications, everything else is running on Ubuntu Linux. It should be mentioned that plans are already in the works to turn this remaining machine into a Linux box, too and run Windows XP in a virtual environment using VMware.
Of course, this comment would not be complete without mentioning the latest buzz about our favorite blogging tool.
WordPress 2.3 was released today. The tireless and dedicated team that support the WordPress Blog system have once again combed through their code to make fixes and enhancements that will amaze you, inform your visitors, keep your stuff secure, increase productivity and keep you blogging. Although it is free to use like the other great stuff already mentioned, the primary reason we use it for our blog here at WebMarket West is that it is the best!
