WordPress wins Forbes.com Best of Web and Favorite award for blog tools! “In February, open source blogging application WordPress came out with its release 1.5, and we’ve found that this release puts WordPress squarely ahead of its competition.” Our number of downloads has more than doubled since that was written. Hat tip: Niall Kennedy. (19)

Dear Mat,
I added the blog component to my literary website to enable people in our citywide reads initiative a place to communicate. The bonus was that it created much more exposure for us than we were getting with the old site with both search engine spiders and site visitors. So thanks so much!
best,
Paula
