[HTML1]With WordCamp Portland fast approaching, I’ve had any number of folks approaching me with questions like “What’s WordPress?”, “Why should I use WordPress?”, “What can I do with WordPress?”, and “When will you shut up with the questions already? I mean, really?”
So rather than try to recount all my WordPress love in one egotistical post, I thought it might better for a little more “show” than “tell.”
So here—in a rough semblance of alphabetical order—are what some other folks in Portland and the Silicon Forest are doing with that magical open-source blogging platform, WordPress:
Whew! That’s a lot of WordPress going on.
If I missed your site (or screwed up your URL), I apologize. Please link it up below so that everyone else see the cool things you’re doing with WordPress.

Wonderful blog! I found it while searching on Yahoo News. Do you have any tips on how to get listed in Yahoo News? I’ve been trying for a while but I never seem to get there! Thank you|

I guess I’ll add mine too, not much there now, but I have some big plans. I’ll be moving to 2.7 on release day.

Now that I’m back on WordPress, I guess I’ll add mine.

Here are a couple more that use WordPress as a CMS, more so than a Blog:

I’m a super cool WordPress kid, too, and not above shameless self-promotion:

Excellent creativity coming out of PDX!
I’m amazed to see the long list. I knew of many, but definitely not all. Here’s a couple of mine:

What, no love? 🙂
I was just thinking, how about narrowing down to the 10 best, in your opinion and we can have a little vote off!
Mine is totally different from everyone else’s

These skateboarding guys are using it too:

Gah…I should have left the original header photo. It was prettier.
Looking at this list makes me realize just how badly I need a new theme. Mine is literally like 3 years old and it shows. *sigh*
Yay WP! Interesting to see the variation in the list. http://waytoocrowded.com/
I’m excited to see a couple of my blogs on the list despite forgetting to send them to you today. Oops. Thanks for taking care of me 🙂
Wow, that’s quite a list. ‘Course, it’s missing my WordPress/K2-based blog, but that’s an easy fix.

Thanks!
Wow, great list. And I really like the “show” angle. Nice work.
I will also shamelessly plug my WordPress blog:

Well shoot, that’s what you wanted PDX WordPress blogs for? In that case, here is a much neglected Portland WordPress blog that I manage:

Didn’t post earlier cause I was embarrassed 😉
Digg this at http://twurl.nl/lfooa5
Don’t forget about…
theemailwars.com & returnonsubscriber.com & crosspixelnation.com
Great list!
Wow. This could be the most incredible thing I’ve seen in a very long time.
Thanks for your hard work in putting this together. It’s the best aggregate of Portland tech blogs I’ve ever seen. If I had more adjectives I’d find a better way of thanking you for this, but I’m rather tongue tied in appreciation at the moment.
Holy moly! Thanks, @turoczy! I DM’d you on Twitter, but maybe it didn’t go thru (had that happen before). My WordPress-based blog: http://www.technoearthmama.com
