WordPress powers 27% of websites. It is an open source project not owned by any company so it does not have a CEO. The project is run by volunteer developers from all over the world. The first version of WordPress was released on May 27, 2003. This makes WordPress older than both Facebook and Twitter. Christine Selleck Tremoulet, a prolific blogger and a friend of Matt Mullenweg (co-founder of WordPress), suggested the name WordPress.
