Summary

San Francisco based social networking and blogging company Six Apart announced today at WordCamp Mid-Atlantic that it is introducing plugins that will work on rival Wordpress sites and other blogging platforms.

This is big news and akin to Apple announcing that it will use a Windows operating system for its new computers. Six Apart should be commended for choosing a very grassroots-type Wordpress event to make this announcement and we think this is a good way to introduce its services to bloggers on other platforms. Shashi Bellamkonda had the opportunity to interview Six Apart VP Anil Dash about this shocking move. You can find that interview here.

At press time we have not had a chance to try out Six Apart's new free, open source plugins but Wordpress users can read more about them and try them out here.
