WordPress Origin Story

I was working at the University of Minnesota and wanted to build a database-driven website. Dreamhost had three 1-click installs: Joomla, Drupal, and WordPress.

I tried Joomla and Drupal first, but they confused the hell out of me. I tried WordPress and said, “I can do this.”

I quit my job shortly thereafter, and my full-time job has been WordPress ever since.
