The introduction of Windows Azure Web Sites opens up new possibilities for web developers using different web frameworks and technologies. In this episode, Faith Allington opens up her Windows Azure-hosted instance of WordPress in WebMatrix. Then she tweaks some code, adds some features, and deploys the changes right back to Windows Azure—all right within the WebMatrix 2 IDE. If you're a PHP developer, you'll want to see all the great features WebMatrix and Windows Azure Web Sites can offer you, including code completion, live editing, local replication, and—obviously—dirt-simple deployment.
