About the Authors

Bud Smith wrote his first book for Que about buying computers fifteen years agoand had to do his online research for it using dial-up Internet. Since then, hes lived and worked in Silicon Valley; London, England; Auckland and Christchurch, New Zealand; San Francisco and Oakland, California, and written a dozen more books. And he does most of his online work at broadband speedsexcept when hes using the Web on his cell phone, which is as slow as his old dial-up modem. Bud runs a WordPress-based blog at RunawayDaily.com.

Michael McCallister is devoted to the idea that technology need not be feared and can be mastered by anyone. He has been writing about technology in general, and open source software in particular, for the whole of the twenty-first century, and part of the previous century, too. He tries to help build the open source community, from which derives WordPress and so much else that is good, true, and pure in life (the parts of life that run on computers, anyway). While Bud has moved hither and yon, Michael has lived the relatively boring, stable life in the central United States (Milwaukee, Madison, and Boulder). Michael has been running Notes from the Metaverse on WordPress since 2006 at metaverse.wordpress.com. Find out more at www.michaelmccallister.com.

Dedication

Bud dedicates his portion of the book to the open source community, godparents of WordPress, and pioneers in what we hope becomes the new normal: doing what you like, because you like to do it, to help other people, not because someone told you to. Linux Journal says that 86% of all blogs use WordPress, a powerful testament to the power of open source.

Michael echoes Buds thoughts, and further dedicates his portion of the book to Jeanette, who puts up with so much.

Introduction
Welcome

Were glad that youve purchased, or are considering the purchase of, this book. WordPress, in its various forms, is remarkable blogging software. Its also an amazing project; a shining example of human collaboration; a great example of open source at work; a fascinating business; and much more.

In less than a decade, WordPress has become the most important tool around for blogging, which itself is the channel for one of the great uncensored, unedited, unrestrained outpourings of creativity in human history. WordPress blogs often serve as a home for breaking news or insightful comments that affect other media. As such, WordPress is important to people who dont like blogs and even to people who dont like computers.

WordPress is a serious and tremendously flexible tooland also a framework for creating more tools. WordPress blogs include some of the biggest websites around, as well as spur-of-the-moment creations that attract a few posts, perhaps a few comments, and then go the way of the dodo.

Along with the blogs themselves, one of the amazing things is the power of blogs as a network, referring to each other, with blog entries and comments forming a meshwell, a web, actuallyof comment, criticism, and encouragement. (Even a criticism can serve as a form of encouragement, inspiring a blogger to answer a complaint or to post a better entry next time.)

Another powerful feature of blogs in general, and WordPress blogs in particular, is the strong community thats formed around them. Thats partly because of the popularity of WordPress blogs and partly because of the open source nature of WordPress software. The WordPress community seamlessly intermixes reaction to blog postings with advice and help on technical aspects of running a blog. Its often hard to tell where one ends and the other begins, but thats part of the fun.
