David Stone (@superdav42) – WordPress user profile

Bio

Worked at @Automattic on @woocommerce . Now I revive the awesome open source project Multisite Ultimate.

Interests

Soccer, programming, family, food, fun, friends, and other ‘f’ words.

WordPress Origin Story

So about 2005 I was reviewing all the open source CMS’s out there. Then it dawned on me. WordPress is really just a CMS, I don’t need Drupal or any of this complex junk. So now I use WordPress whenever it makes sense.
