I’m very happy to announce that CatN is the Gold Sponsor for this years WordCamp UK hosted at Portsmouth University. The event is the follow up to the very successful WordCamp UK 2010, and will be running from the 16th to 17th of July 2011.

CatN will be there in force with a large stand at the event with plenty of freebies, and the CatN logo gracing T-Shirts, banners and all manner of WordPress paraphernalia. If you’re planning on going to the event or are still undecided there’s plenty of information on the WordCamp UK wiki, until the official WordCamp UK 2011 web site is launched.

Why WordPress is the most popular CMS…

By Joe Gardiner Wednesday, 3rd February 2010

Is WordPress the best blog/content management system available? We think so, and in 2009 the Open Source CMS Awards thought so too! Lets have a look at what makes WordPress so popular.
