Matt Mullenweg on the Future of Wordpress

by Allen Stern on October 6th, 2008

Yesterday we posted videos from Wordpress co-founder Matt Mullenweg on the State of Wordpress, a Wordpress 2.7 demo and today we have the last piece of his keynote. This last piece focuses on the future of Wordpress. Matt discusses a variety of topics including: upgrades, security, rich media, Wordpress as a hub, backpress and buddypress. Buddypress looks pretty strong – basically it allows you to easily insert a social network inside your blog. Many of the Wordcamp attendees asked questions about Buddypress and integration with other social networks like Facebook and MySpace.
