Since we so often recommend the exceptional WordPress platform as the basis personal and business websites, we wanted to showcase WordPress as a corporate website to demonstrate that it functions just as well as a more complex cms. In particular, we wanted to demonstrate that an “micro” enterprise class website could be designed around WordPress using only publicly available plugins (including some of our own). Once we finished this showcase, however, we decided that we liked it so much that it became the official PaintedRockCommunications.com.

Among the plugins in this version:

• µAudio Player
• µMint Plugin
• Akismet
• cforms ][
• HeadSpace2
• Hello Dolly
• Redirection
• Sideboard

The only real edit we made is to the Hello Dolly plugin — we replaced the lyrics with those from the Muppet’s Christmas Carol. In addition, our µMint Plugin makes use of Shaun Inman’s excellent Mint statistics platform.
