I have been watching the download counter for Wordpress 2.0 and I am happy to say that as of now, it has hit 1 million downloads. Now, that doesn’t mean 1 million blogs are running WP2, but it means it’s been downloaded a million times. I personally download it once every new version, so four of those downloads are probably mine. However, I set up blogs for friends and such, so those four downloads probably created about 10 blogs. In addition, other people may download WordPress once for every blog, and others multiple times. Whether download count os a good thing or not, today is certainly a special day for WordPress.
Update: Other sites that blogged this can be found at The Blog Herald
