Matt Mullenweg Talks to USA Today

Posted on January 29, 2009

Jefferson Graham of USA Today talked blogging with 25-year-old Matt Mullenweg, CEO of Automattic and co-creator of WordPress. Mullenweg said WordPress tries to cater to the more serious users. He says the blogging software company has 35 full-time employees but did not say what the revenues are. Mullenweg says he was studying to become a musician before starting WordPress. He is young enough that he still has time to return to music as a second career.
