St. Louis Post-Dispatch is Using WordPress

I was browsing StLToday.com and noticed a couple of things. First off, there is a new design. I haven’t been there in a while, so I’m not sure how fresh this new design is. It’s not bad, but I liked their old design better. What can I say, I love blue. The second thing I noticed, while browsing Gordo’s Tip Sheet, is that all their blogs are running WordPress. Check out their blogs. This is a wise decision. Their old blogs had long, crusty URLs, but now with WP they are short and sweet. I don’t know what their old system was like, but I’m sure it’s easier for the columnists as well. Good job St. Louis Post-Dispatch.

Here is one possibility (purely for fun):

Design for the very rich

What is that you ask? Well, that is a funny line on this clever website. They go on to say:

Our services are unbelievably expensive. Like, really really expensive. You almost certainly can’t afford us. With that in mind, if you are grotesquely wealthy, we would love to hear from you.

How did I find this site? Well, Adam was recommending their hosting in #wordpress.

System/79 Hosting is too expensive for you. Come back when you have more money.

If you stop by #wordpress on chat.freenode.net and ajnewbold is there, make sure and ask him to recite every line of The Hunt for Red October.

And if you are interested in a career make sure you

come back to apply once we’ve fixed our email.
