WordPress Wins Best Open Source CMS 2009!

Last week WordPress was awarded the Overall Best Open Source CMS Award in the 2009 Open Source CMS Awards. This is a landmark as it is the first time they’ve won this award, and it marks a shift in the public perception of WordPress, from blog software to full-featured CMS. No small contest, the Open Source CMS Awards received over 12,000 nominations and more than 23,000 votes across five categories.

Backs up what I have been saying for several years now – WordPress is not just for Blogs! In fact, if you count they last 15 sites we have done in WordPress, none of them were designed to be “just a blog”, they were intended to be full featured CMS sites – and that is what they are!
