Instapundit which is one of the most highly trafficked political blogs on the net recently confirmed that they have switched from Movable Type to WordPress. The site doesn’t appear to be hosted on the WordPress.com VIP network but instead, is using a self hosted install of WordPress 2.6.3. Hat Tip to Doug Stewart.
Another new that makes me proud 🙂
I guess once the big guys start to convert to WordPress, the others will follow.
Yes, the conversion of the big ones to WP, would be a great promotion really.
Great to see, the blog is powered by wordpress.org, says so @ the bottom on the footer 😉
Don’t mean to nitpick here but…

They need to update.
the more popular wordpress is, the more it should focus on security and memory usage. congrats!
On the other side of the spectrum, sadlyno.com is asking for help in keeping their WordPress site from crashing.
It’s good to know that reality-challenged right-wing propaganda outlet will at least be using the best blog software out there.
Is it really impossible for news like this to be reported without someone being a douche bag and making a smartass partisan comment?
Yes.
