PC World did an article on “The 50 Most Important People on the Web” and I came in at #16 and the youngest on the list. Thanks to everyone who emailed and wrote, it was a very pleasant way to wake up this morning.

WP.com is awesome. My 9 yr old daughter set up a blog this weekend. I love the privacy features.
Regardless kudos to you.

Well deserved! That’s great motivation to keep improving WP. We love ya!
