On Thursday, WordPress celebrated its seventh birthday. Web designers have been using the popular custom management system since May 27, 2003.

During the past seven years, WordPress has changed drastically, transforming from a small blogging platform to one of the world's most popular custom management systems, says World Buzz Now.

The site is currently in the middle of launching WordPress 3.0. The second phase of the beta started earlier this month and is now testing a new menu user interface as well as alterations to the exporter and importer tool, reports the company's blog.

WordPress 3.0 is supposed to bridge the gap between the conventional WordPress platform and WordPress Multi-User. WPMU is an extension of WordPress that allows multiple blogs to exist within one installation. WordPress 3.0 is due out later in 2010.

WordPress is currently used by more than 20 million publishers worldwide. Of those, 10.6 million are blogs hosted on WordPress.com while an additional 11.4 million are active installations of the WordPress software, according to WordPress' official site.
