You've Come A Long Way Baby

Movable Type, the venerable weblog tool and our weapon of choice, turns five years old. That means we've been using MT for about 4 years 10 months now.

It's been quite a trip watching the tool grow up from personal blogging tool for Blogger refugees to an enterprise class tool for communicating and collaborating in business. Originally a hobby and side project of Ben and Mena Trott, MT has become the flagship product of a upstart technology company (Six Apart) with a worldwide staff of 125 serving around 20 million users. During this time, blogging has grown from a practice of early adopter tech enthusiasts and blossomed into a phenomena that is altering media and communications as we've come to know it.

Congratulations to Ben and Mena and the rest of Six Apart. We're looking forward to what the next 5 years (and more!) brings.
