How long have you been using WordPress?
With WordPress celebrating twenty-three years today, May 27th, I remember my first experience as if it were yesterday. Our Media Relations team launched a transportation news blog with WordPress. I was a graphic designer-turned-HTML hobbyist who inherited this site when our CSS Goddess and Lead Developer left our agency within one month of each other. First task, building my first child theme after attending my first WordCamp LAX back in 2012.
