Hi guys,
Man, I've been meaning to say something for awhile but couldn't until
today. After the Deadline, the SaaS solution built in Sleep to check
spelling, style, and grammar has been acquired by Automattic, Inc.
Today it went live on WordPress.com powering the writing checking for
millions of bloggers.

The news about WordPress.com is at:

My writeup on the whole event is at:

And Matt Mullenweg's announcement on his blog is at:

So now if someone asks you where Sleep is used. You can point them to
this story. Hope all is well in your world.
