Phase 1, Blog Post #2

Who: The founders of WordPress are Matt Mullenweg and Mike               Little, it first became available to the public in May of 2003. 

What: WordPress is a simple, free way for anyone to create their                own website. It also uses open-source code, which allows                  the users to make more customizations for their site than                other platforms.

When: WordPress was released to the public on May 27, 2003. It                 was originally a very simple website, but as demand grew                   new updates provided more for WordPress users.

Where: There isn’t any information on where exactly WordPress                  was created, but it is likely that since its main founder was                born and raised in Houston, Texas that is where                               WordPress was created.

Why: I’m using WordPress because it is easy to use, customizable,            and I can get it through NYU’s resources. 

WordPress’s code of conduct seems to be focused on establishing a sense of community within the users. They emphasize that their software is to spread positivity and be used as a method of collaboration, not to harassment of others.
