WordPress Theme and Plugin Challenge

June 25, 2006 by Liz

Meet David, at Blogging Pro

David has a deep interest in blogging and bloggers. He’s also a bit concerned.

Are You Up for a Challenge?

This week David and I exchanged emails. He told me about a challenge he’s laid down. He’s hoping to reinvigorate the WordPress community and perhaps encourage some new theme and plugin creators.

I recently posed a challenge on BloggingPro.com to WordPress theme and plugin creators in hopes of getting those sitting on the sidelines to get working on something new for WordPress. I was wondering if you would mention the challenge on your site, as many of the people that read your site might be those on the sidelines, looking for extra exposure, and posessing the talents to really produce something great.

I’m not only mentioning the challenge. I’m going to be talking about it, when I interview David in the next post about it.

You can read more about the challenge in this post at BloggingPro. While you’re there, bookmark the site. It’s a great reference for any blogger’s toolkit. Click on the title to get the the article.

WordPress Slowdown and a Challenge

David is one interesting, dedicated blogger. I think you’ll enjoy getting to know him.
