I just realized that I have been using EE for about four years!  I was one of the original 1.0 contest winners who got a free copy.  I immediately made the switch from MoveableType and haven’t turned back.  It took me about a week to learn the coding/tag system (rudimentary compared to what we have now) and I have loved it ever since.  I reset my entire site last year and it was easy enough to re-establish my site on a new host, even from Iraq.

I watched the platform grow from a blog platform with a few extras to the most complete CMS I have found to date.  The staff has always been responsive and a lot of the growth has been due to their listening to their userbase.

Anyway,  I just thought I should post my thoughts somewhere when I realized how long I had been using EE, and now I realize just how long I have been blogging in the modern sense.. Sheesh!

I am eagerly awaiting EE 2.0.  😊

That contest changed my life…

... in a really wonderful way. =)

another switcher here and lifetime convert to EE.

I ♥ EE

And another one. I, too, came from MT, but that was a long time ago. Never did look back, obviously… 😊

No diversions (MT) for me, straight to EE from pMachinePro

Same here…if not even a bit reluctantly.  I had just done a major redesign Boyink.com on PmPro when EE came out… 😕

Well I’m 34 so I guess that makes me older than a lot of people on here, even most of the development team from what I can see!

Unfortunately that doesn’t make me clever though :down: I’m still stuck at the level I’m at!!

Best wishes,
