Heard of the Web? If not, read on. This month we talk with Matt Mullenweg about WordPress. If you want to get your hands dirty in Web code, take a look at the rest of our feature articles on WebKit, Dojo and OpenLaszlo.

In the rest of the issue, you'll find articles on OpenID, RDFa and Quanta Plus.
