Top Gear fuelled by Wordpress

I hope the title isn’t misleading. Clarkson’s Lamborghini Gallardo is NOT turning to Wordpress as alternative fuel source in the current petrol crisis. However the Top Gear blog is actually powered by my favourite platform – Wordpress! It’s not really that big a deal, WP is amazing and is used by a massive percentage of bloggers, but it still makes me happy. So let’s all get into /wp-admin and try lots of passwords! Only joking… please don’t sue me.

And for those of you living under a rock, the brand new season of TG started on Sunday night. It wasn’t the finest series debut but was still enough to make me chuckle on the couch. To be honest, the previous 2 seasons will be hard to beat so I’m looking forward to seeing what they’ve got planned. They’ve already gone to the North Pole and crossed the Botswana Salt Plains… maybe this time they’ll drive to the top of Everest in a Fiat 500… or travel the Inca trail in a Ford Transit… or perhaps build cars that turn into helicopters… who knows?

Don’t forget to tune in, Sunday evenings at 8pm on BBC2. Or on Sky+ if you don’t get chance, or on Dave if you don’t have Sky+, or downloaded off the internet if you don’t have Sky, or at a mates house if you don’t have either of the above

All I’ve heard is tons of good things about wordpress.

I can’t wait to get migrated over to it so I can get my site on a bit more of a professional level.

I also feel happy when a big site migrates to WP! And to BIG SLICK WEB DESIGN, don’t wait anymore, just do it! You won’t regret, I had used MT for a year before I switched to WP and I must say, blogging has never felt this easier!!

Woo hoo for Top Gear! For those that may not know it there’s now an Aussie spin off (franchise I guess) of the Top Gear show. Not sure it’s going down that well as it’s always hard to compete with a successful original.

Wordpress is too good to use that is not explainable. I have more than 10 domain hosted by wordpress and I am more than happy to use it. It is good to know that giants are going to have it as their operating software.

Thanks for the great article!
A blog should not keep you from going in vacation, it should encourage you to do so. Then you have things to talk about and vacations pictures to show to your friends.

Hi all,
Yes, I feel much easier blogging with WP.
Before, I use blogger, but I think that blogger is difficult or even no way to optimize the blog with SEO.

Then I tried WP which has a lot of plugins, and easy to optimize for SEO.

Does anyone upgrade to the newest version?

Thank you.
