In this episode, I talk to Matt Mullenweg — co-founder of WordPress and the CEO of Automattic — about what’s happening in the world of WordPress, and his role in it all. Welcome to the Post Status Draft podcast, which you can find on iTunes, Google Play, Stitcher, and via RSS for your favorite podcatcher. Post Status Draft is hosted by Brian Krogsgard.
In this episode, I am joined by Matt Mullenweg, the CEO of Automattic and the co-founder of WordPress. In this episode, we discuss a range of issues facing WordPress today, as well as the various arms of Automattic’s business:
WordPress 4.9 features around customization.
Progress on the Gutenberg Editor
Feature projects and a year of day-to-day project lead
The React decision for WordPress, and what came of it
WooCommerce, Jetpack and issues they are facing
Site building versus blogging on WordPress.com, and their ad campaigns
