I recently had a chance to speak with Chris Garrett, owner of Chris Garrett Media Ltd about his new company The 449, which sells beautiful, custom themes for £449.
So, lets start with a little about the 449, and its history. Who is involved, and you mentioned somewhere that you had worked on this idea before?
I […]
Today I got to meet up with Ted Murphy of PayPerPost at the Mesh Conference. He was really down to earth and easy to talk to. He laughed at the mention of the verbal jab Michael Arrington directed his way the day before. Arrington called Ted Murphy the “the most evil person” in the room.
Talking […]
OpensourceCMS has a short interview with Matt Mullenweg on there site. Unfortunately, with no date next to it, I don’t know how old or how fresh this interview is. They go over a few things, and really it is nothing substantial or new though Matt does have one interesting and quotable sentence in the interview, […]
Over on LAist, there is a short video interview with Matt Mullenweg. While it doesn’t reveal any new information, it is nice to see such an impromptu interview with Matt, which includes the history of WordPress, his involvement, and of course WordPress.com.
Matthew Mullenweg, the co-founder of WordPress is one of those young people that your […]
Over on BloggerTalks there is a great interview up with Problogger.net’s Darren Rowse. One of the heads of the b5media blog network, and known for his SixFigureBlogging course.
Being a professional blogger that is trying to educate the masses, what’s the most common mistake you see bloggers doing out there?
The first thing that comes to mind […]
Being part of a blog network, there are some people I work with everyday that are constantly writing some of my favourite things to read, and Marco, of ForeverGeek is one of those people. I got him talking blogging, and next thing you know, an interview was born.
David: Thanks Marco for talking with me […]
Recently, I had a chance to talk to Justin Shattuck of justinshattuck.com which can be described as:
“A glimpse into the subconscious mind of Justin Shattuck; developer, critic, designer, and successful entrepreneur. Consider the content more-or-less your daily mental diuretic of useless information and ramblings. Amazingly, on occasion, there is some pretty decent writings.”
Warning, this interview […]
Wendy Boswell is an accomplished mother, wife and blogger. She can be found at many popular blog networks and sites, including b5media (Stewie is the best!), About.com and LifeHacker.
1.) Wendy, first off I would like to thank you for taking the time to do this. I really appreciate it. I was wondering if you […]
Recently, I was going through a list of people I would love to interview/talk to, about their roles in blogging and the blogosphere, and one of the names that kept on popping into my head was Tris Hussey. So I tracked him down, and bugged him to do an interview with me.
While he couldn’t […]
For me, Keith Robinson needs no introduction. A great writer, and designer among other things, I see his name popping up all over the place. You might have read some of his works on LifeHacker, A List Apart, among other places. I shot him an e-mail hoping to get his perspective on all the things […]
I recently was lucky enough to secure a few minutes with Matt Mullenweg, one of the people that took it upon himself to create WordPress. Being so busy, I expected him to say “no” when I asked, but he didn’t and so here is the interview.
1.) Most people that read this site know you thanks […]
Last night I had the lucky opportunity to chat with Scotty of Hitch50.com. Scotty and Fiddy are travelling across the US in fifty days thanks to the miracle of hitchhiking.
Justin, a friend of mine picked them up and let me know they were in his car. I have to admit to not being prepared, […]
Folksonomy has a short interview up with Dick Costolo, co-founder and CEO of FeedBurner.
The most interesting question for me was the one about blogging of course.
You have a unique advantage of having one foot in the world of blogging, and one foot in the world of Web 2.0. What advice would you give to a […]

No, Matt Mullenweg is not really the CEO of Automattic, the company he helped founded. It is actually in the lap of Toni Schneider who was recently interviewed with PodTech.
PodTech is built on top of Wordpress, a blogging and content management package from Automattic. Here we sit down with Toni Schneider, CEO of Automattic, to […]
A Whole Lotta Nothing has a great interview up with Joel Johnson, from Dethroner and Gawker.
MH: So how do you find the motivation for it? I know lots of people (myself included) that might leave a professional writing gig with a book, blog, or magazine and say “fuck this mere pittance they’re paying me, […]
I recently contacted Liz Strauss about the WordPress Challenge I had imposed, as her audience was much the same as who I was hoping would participate in the challenge. I will have the results on that challenge later today or tomorrow, but right now I want to talk about Successful Blog, which is written by […]
Many people are using his themes, probably without knowing who he is, but Phu Ly startled the WordPress community when he found the time, energy and will to release a theme a day back in February of this year. And in six days, resting on the seventh of course, Phu released some amazing themes. You […]
