After conducting several google searches looking for WPMU themes, plugins and ideas, I came to the realization that there is quite a surprising lack of WPMU resources out there. While there seems to be an almost endless supply of both premium and free Wordpress tools to be found, only one WPMU resource keep popping up, WPMU DEV. Found at wpmu.org, WPMU DEV combines premium Wordpress MU plugins, themes, support, tips and instructions on how to maximize any WPMU installation.

While I haven’t yet purchased a WPMU DEV membership I definitely plan to in the near future. Good resources and support for Wordpress MU are just too rare. Just do a quick search at your favorite search engine and tell me if you can find anything similar to these…
