However, I overlooked their premium services such as Akismet. This year they’ve really exploited the growing demand for blogging in business and have tailored several entrerprise level services towards this market. They’ve also been able to make use of the house-hold-name the open source release of wordpress has gotten in order to grab customers. They’ve introduced premium features such as template customisation into their hosted service, however I think there’ll be stiff competition in 2007.

I just worry that people are quickly going to get sick of paying $1 here, $15 there to get features for their WordPress.com blog that are 100% free with WordPress.org.

I think Matt and team have done an amazing thing by protecting my ability to leave WordPress.com . I trust these guy.

Only a few years later... and at an expense! I heartily laugh at this lame-duck attempt to monetize.

You can edit the CSS on all themes.

I think there are a few others of us out there that thought it was just the Sandbox theme, much like it was just Connections or whatnot when the header editor first came out. I can't wait to see what you add next.

For $2 you can get a domain at Yahoo (http://domains.yahoo.com/), and for $25 you can get a full <em>years</em> worth of hosting at ASmallOrange (http://www.asmallorange.com/). But honestly, as a WordPress.com user, I'm stoked about this update. $15 really is just couple rolls of pennies, and it lets you edit your CSS for a full year. Keep in mind, you get more at WordPress.com than just a blog; you get security. You can't mess anything up, and that's great for people like me. When I had my own server running WordPress, I accidentally edited some lines of code that I didn't understand, and had the entire site screw up. Back to a fresh install, and that can be time consuming. You also get more social integration; you can browse through WordPress.com blogs, and you can meet people through WP.com forums. Its built-in stat system is great. WP.com is a perfectly optimized version of WordPress MU, that it's hard to think of a reason not to use it. Basically what I'm saying is that I don't think there's too much concern over people not willing to pay. The people that use WP.com are different people than the ones that use WP.org.
