A big coup for Matt Mullenweg and the folks at Automattic, the company behind WordPress.com, with news that they have hired Toni Schneider, a senior executive spear-heading Yahoo’s Developer Network as their new CEO.

Toni and Matt both comfirm the hiring.

Congrats to Matt and the team.

    Hey, that’s pretty cool! I’ve dabbled with Word Press, and although I think the layout is smoother than blogger’s, I wish they would give users a “test run” on their free plan.

    If so, then I would look forward to using the software. :)
