Hey, hey! I didn’t even know wordpress.com was being announced. Matt dropped it during his demo. It’s a hosted service powered by Wordpress.

Admittedly I was only on my second cup of coffee, but did they differentiate between that service and Typepad?

I didn’t know wordpress.com was a surprise, having found it while Googling on ‘wordpress’ yesterday afternoon (Thurs) during a slow session. I figured that since MT has a hosted and non-hosted option, it made sense.
Surprise! Just like the English lit student who learned he’d been writing prose all his life.

I’m not as connected to the Wordpress community as I should be and was like, “whoa, hey cool.”
Ken 08.19.05 at 12:11 pm
Gersh - here is a differentiator - it’s free.

We have been offering a hosted free blog service a la TypePad, using the WP platform for quite a while now and have over 20,000 WP blogs hosted. Checkout Blogsome. Admittedly the new multi-user has a number of additional features.

Thanks for the post Roger. I hadn’t seen Blogsome previously.

I just heard! If you are really determined to get an invite, though they are free, you can bid on someone’s invite to wordpress.com on ebay. Amazing.

Not sure I remember saying that, but at the moment wordpress.com does have a pretty major disadvantage over Blogsome: you can’t edit your templates (yet) on WordPress.com with the result that many of the blogs look the same. With Blogsome you can edit your template and many of our users have very individualistic blogs.

Roger,
That’s a good point and one I’ll make tomorrow about choosing a blog and being different with your design.
