wordpress.com, the hosted wp service, is a pretty solid. still comes with matt, though, but that drama doesn’t really affect you as a wp.com user.

anyone who comes to me about hosting wordpress, i send there. i don’t wanna deal with it, nor do i really want that hackerbot magnet on my boxes.

matt’s an ass and all, but the service on the .com does have a decent track record afaik.

it was always all about the data, even back in the hot-or-not clone days.
