    Site looks great, although maybe someone should tell them they still have no follows on all their pages?

    Dude that is way sick. What an accomplishment to have a such an iconic magazine use your platform to build their site off of. Major props.

    Thanks Matt for pointing that out – that’s one great WordPress site! I’m also a big fan of the LIFE vintage photography.

    Matt,

    This is unbelievable! Although the magazine isn’t what it once was, having an iconic property like LIFE on WP is amazing.

    All the best!

    I have always LOVED LIFE Magazine. In fact, the historical stories and pictures told is exactly the reason I became fascinated with America, history and the realities of living and working as a citizen in such a country as ours!

    On April 1st, I will begin my own effort to honor a segment of our nation’s population that is, for the most part, ignored – homeless veterans.

    I will be hiking the ‘American Freedom Trail’ 5,100 miles across America from California to Washington, D.C.; arriving Labor Day Weekend, 2012

    Too bad LIFE wasn’t around today to cover my story… Kudos!

        I am so glad to hear that. When friends question the viability of open source, I always refer to you. Community rocks!
