WordPress.com has launched a new service that I recall talking to Matt Mullenweg about during WordCamp. He mentioned back then that folks like Scoble are sitting on top of the WordPress.com servers and that Automattic was thinking about letting other select bloggers do so as well.
Well, the day is here and WordPress.com has launched VIP Hosting. A few select high-profile, high-traffic bloggers will be allowed to jump on their robust infrastructure for a “Powered by WordPress” link, a few template hooks for WP.com stats and $250/mo.
I might mention that Automattic developer, Andy Skelton, is dying to get Dan Rather blogging on WordPress.com so Dan, if you’re listening, WordPress.com is a better solution for you than HDNet.
