The term “warm fuzzy” comes from the story The Warm Fuzzy Tale by Claude Steiner. It was used in a technical sense to illustrate a specific concept in social skill development. But for the purpose of this post I’m going to define it as a “brief note that can brighten someone’s day, or bring a feeling of cheerful support”.

He’s been around practically since the dawn of WordPress and remains active via MetaMeta Meta is a term that refers to the inside workings of a group. For us, this is the team that works on internal WordPress sites like WordCamp Central and Make WordPress. and PluginPlugin A plugin is a piece of software containing a group of functions that can be added to a WordPress website. They can extend functionality or add new features to your WordPress websites. WordPress plugins are written in the PHP programming language and integrate seamlessly with WordPress.

I would like to remind him how much we appreciate him, and if he’s influenced you or your journey with WordPress, maybe let him know that, too!
