Given the rise of the technology portion of SXSW, it’s not surprising that many internet and technology brands have a significant presence in Austin during the conference. Blogging platform WordPress , which I switched this blog to in November 2012, is no exception. Stopping by their Happiness Bar, I actually ended up meeting the founder and CEO, and got to tell him how pleased I have been since switching from Tumblr (which I had in turn migrated to from Blogger). It was really cool.
