I've been experimenting with writing X articles over the past few months, focusing on opinion and editorial-style pieces. So far, they've had 80,000 views (and that's not including any cross-posting to LinkedIn stats). Next, I'm planning to turn these articles into short videos…

I can't believe that WooCommerce is free! You can literally sell millions of dollars worth of products without paying a dime other than credit card fees.
We're doing a synchronous chat about @WordPress core AI in 30m (12pm ET). make.wordpress.org/ai/2025/07/17/… make.wordpress.org/ai/2025/07/23/… We'll be discussing the AI Building Blocks for WordPress should anybody want to join.
WordPress has been cooling for a few years. Meanwhile, tools like Loveable, Bolt & Replit are exploding. What if WP’s mission expanded beyond websites? What if it became the open platform for building anything on the web? I wrote up some thoughts here 👇

I have to say, I've used quite a lot of different of these "all-in one messaging” solutions over the years, but Beeper just works so smoothly that it's a joy to work with.
Last week, we officially launched the new Beeper. One inbox. End-to-end encryption. Beeper Plus. And a room full of people who are just as excited about the future of messaging as we are. Check out some snaps from the event!

Happy Ventoux Day! The Tour de France tackled it today, bringing back brutal memories of when I cycled up it a few years ago. Still one of the toughest climbs I’ve ever faced.

More and more Americans are moving to the Cotswolds, where I live. Before you come, please understand: the beer is warm, “pants” means underwear, and the wood pigeons will haunt your dreams. 🇬🇧🫖🇺🇸
🚀 582 people have already liked my video about @felixarntz AMAZING FREE WordPress plugin! Bit bonkers really… but it is kind of a game-changer. 😅
This is a little nuts. A couple of years ago, investment in AI was 0.1% of US GDP and this year it's going to be 2%. The country hasn't seen anything like this since the railway boom of the 1880s.
This FREE WordPress Plugin Is a Must-Have for Every Website! youtu.be/eQu5UhWskuM
If you could change one thing in @WooCommerce (add, remove, or improve), what would it be?

Dude it’s 2025, just put @nickmdiego’s icon block in WordPress core already. Icons are an essential website element, not something users should have to chase down via a plugin.
In the context of understanding SEO and AI, this is a must-read article. Mike King explains how AI mode works in search engines, breaking down how LLMs, embeddings, and retrieval-augmented generation are changing search. Seriously… you have to read this if you want to understand…
10.2% CTR? Not too shabby. 💪
I am so excited to share our roadmap and approach for AI + the @WordPress Project. Earlier today, the team published a series of articles detailing what we’re building, why, and how you can get involved. make.wordpress.org/ai/2025/07/17/…
