<p><a href="http://publisherblog.automattic.com/2008/01/17/price-no-object-for-general-motors/" title="Price No Object for General Motors">The IT guy in charge of one of the General Motors sites</a>:</p>
<blockquote><p>Iâ€™m the lead developer for the blog.gmnext.com. When we looked to select the best blogging system out there we went through several both closed-source (cheap to fairly expensive) blogging tools to all the open source variety. <strong>We ended up choosing WordPress not because of the cost but simply because <em>it was the best tool for blogging out on the market</em>. </strong>The project is just the beginning, weâ€™re in the process now of localizing the blog into a variety of languages. Well done on <strong>one of the best designed systems Iâ€™ve seen in a long time.</strong></p></blockquote>
<p>By the way, thanks to <strong>David Perry of <a href="http://www.consensuspoint.com/" title="Consensus Point">Consensus Point</a></strong> for directing me to <a href="http://photomatt.net/">WordPress</a>, two years ago. And also thanks to <strong><a href="http://www.dpennock.com/" title="David Pennock">David Pennock</a> of Yahoo! Research</strong> for some IT tips.</p>
