Wordpress is a blog publishing system written in PHP
and backed by a MySQL database. Wordpress is the official successor of b2\cafelog,
developed by Michel Valdrighi. The name Wordpress was suggested by
Christine Selleck, a friend of lead developer Matt Mullenweg.
b2\cafelog, more commonly known as simply b2 or cafelog was the precursor
to Wordpress. b2\cafelog was estimated to have been employed on
approximately 2000 blogs as of May 2003. It was also written in PHP for
use with MySQL by Michel Valdrighi, who is now a contributing developer to
Wordpress. Though Wordpress is the official successor, another project,
b2evolution, is also in active development.
Wordpress first appeared in 2003 as a joint effort between Matt Mullenweg
and Mike Little to create a fork of b2.
In 2004 the licensing terms for the competing Movable Type package was
changed by Six Apart, and many of its users migrated to Wordpress –
causing a marked, and continuing, growth in Wordpress's popularity.
