In the week leading up to Big Omaha 2010, I spoke with Automattic founder Matt Mullenweg about his company’s background, the recent WordCamp San Francisco, the WordPress Foundation and more.

Matt was a tremendous addition to this year’s Big Omaha event. From the moment he arrived in Omaha and invited others to join him for a BBQ lunch, to his interview with blogger, technical evangelist and managing director of building43 Robert Scoble, Matt was a pleasure to host.

Until then, enjoy my discussion with Matt, and I encourage you to visit Matt on Twitter and thank him for taking time for the interview and coming to Big Omaha 2010!

Here are the topics Matt and I discuss:
