TECH has a WordPress.com Review – written on an actual wordpress.com blog. I’ve been invited into the alpha testing also and from what I’ve seen so far it’s shaping up to be a great system. I’m looking forward to seeing what features they add as it moves towards a beta test.
My name is Darren Rowse and I’m a full time Blogger making a living from this new and dynamic medium from blogs like Digital Photography School and TwiTip - Twitter Tips.
Back in 2002 I stumbled upon an article about ‘Blogging’. I didn’t know it at the time but that moment changed my life. Since then I've become a full time blogger and have blogged on over 20 blogs and co-founded the b5media blog network.

You are so lucky…I wish I was invited too… Not that I have any specific purpose for my blog. I would probably give it to my gf to blog with… I am really interested in playing with the WP 1.6 backend.

Then why don’t you just install 1.6 on your site, make a new directory and add a test blog, or if you are feeling lucky, you can install 1.6 on your main blog and see what happens!
BTW, that’s my site, and my review, hope you guys like it :)

[...] 一方、海外で TypePad の競争相手として注目を集めている新興 blog ホスティングサービス wordpress.com については、大量のDELLサーバがデータセンタに運び込まれてたりとか、ユーザの一人がレビューを書いてたりとか、またそれが ProBlogger で取り上げられたりとかしてます。レビューの結論はこんな感じ。 After all, only time can show if wp.com is really going to make serious competition for Typepad, but if the wp.com development team (Matt and Donncha i guess..) continue doing things like now, updating the service and adding new features everyday, as well as answering support and feedback emails on a record time for people that I’m sure have a lot of other things to do, wp.com can easily beat Typepad.
