Just a few days ago, I was trying to decide what to do with my significantly neglected WordPress.com blog, and I decided that I was going to start a food blog “just like everyone else on WordPress.com.” Well, it looks like I wasn’t alone in that far-reaching generalization.
Just in time for the food-filled fall and winter holidays, WordPress.com has launched the simply awesome and hunger-inspiring FoodPress.
FoodPress features the best food-related posts from WordPress.com’s network of over 14 million blogs. The posts are hand-picked “by scouring food-related tag pages like food, recipes, baking, cocktails, and more,” so don’t forget to tag your posts!
I hope that FoodPress is the first in a long line of GenrePressing WordPress.com blogs, and I hope that technology and photography are next.
What do you think of FoodPress, and what kind of GenrePressing blogs do you want to see next?
P.S. GenrePress – you heard it here first, though I am officially licensing the term under the GPL.
That looks very … appetizing alright!
It’s nice that Automattic are finding new and innovative ways to make money out of people’s content. It would be even nicer if they could figure out some way of sharing a little of the revenue with the people who actually create the content.
You speak the truth mate! @WordPress don’t be greedy our content + your reach = money….can we get in?
PornPress (you’ve heard it here first) 😉
…there’s no denying it. Pr0n owns t3h interwebz.
HealthPress would also be a good start. That could eventually be broken down into sub categories since HealthPress would be unwieldy because of the breadth of the subject.
Since it pulls off of the tags, any subject could be conglomerated.
I wonder just how many pornography blogs there are on WordPress?
Wow thanks for sharing. I visit around 5 food blogs on wordpress regularly; but I never thought they’d aggregate the best ones in one location. Do you have any idea who actually compiles the list?
I had never heard of foodpress before. Just visiting the site once made me hungry. I shall definitely be trying this:

I would like to see gympress or maybe benchpress, for tips on exercise/weight routines.
Travelpress
Sportspress
Parentpress
Politicspress
Great idea – I reckon Edpress; a spot for Education Blogs to gather would go down well.
Wondering why my comment was deleted.
Apparently, Akismet thought it is was spam. I’m not sure why, but it has been successfully rescued.
Thank you, James.
Lol WORKPRESS is already mine, (work related to wordpress)
I think newspress would work great for generic news or BlogPress I would prefer instead of wordpress.com
