Episode 12 is made up entirely of the first part of an interview with Matt Mullenweg, the lead developer of WordPress and head of Automattic, including coverage of topics as:
- The beginnings of WordPress.
- Co-founding the Global Multimedia Protocols Group with Eric Meyer and Tantek Çelik to write the first of the microformats.
- His love of jazz music and his musical influences.
- The three things he misses about Texas.
- Turduckens for Thanksgiving.
- The WordPress Codex, the managability problem and the call for documentation volunteers.
- The metrics of blogs in general, and WordPress and WordPress.com in particular.
- WordPress 2.1 features preview.

Another great podcast!
I was not sure what to expect when I read “the metrics of blogs in general” before listening. It might be clearer to say something like “How many blogs are there, and how many run WordPress”.
