    WordPress Origin Story

    When Jeremy Horland, who introduced me to perl and MySQL back in the late 1990’s said he was primarily using wordpress to develop for his clients, it confirmed the viability and scalability of the system. After years of updating text links in a static html blog, it’s nice to finally have it database-driven!
