I have been using WordPress.com hosted blogging service for about 2 years, moving my blog from Blogger. I have been happy with the service and was excited each time a new theme or feature was rolled out ( my favourite is the Gravatar ). So I am quite excited to read that WordPress.com has raised about $29 million in funding. Matt Mullenweg and the entire WordPress team deserve something for their tireless efforts in making WordPress the awesome blogging platform that it is.
