WordPress Origin Story

Just fiddling along with random apps as a self-development exercise, discovered WP v1.6 played around and moved on. Later again encountered WP v2.3 got me thinking, started using from WP v2.6 & then hooked on to it. Started developing WP Plugins from WP v3.2 (as _KDC-Labs) & then there was no stopping me from falling deeply in love with WP.

Further to this on the 10th WP Anniversary met up with a bunch of WP enthusiast and fanatics in the MUMBAI Meetup group, of which Three Amazing pals @gounder, @adityakane & @sahil86. Then the journey beyond this is story by itself. WP India (dot) org | WordCamp Mumbai 2014 …..
