Changing the About text in Wordpress

This has been driving me nuts and I can’t believe how simple it is to change! I haven’t been able to find where the “About” text is stored and apparently I’m not the only one. Thousands of blogs all have the “This is an example of a WordPress page…”

And here is the incredibly simple answer on how to fix it!

In your Wordpress backend/dashboard hit the ‘manage’ tab and then hit the ‘pages’ tab. In the list of pages that you see there you’ll find the page that needs changing (in this case it’s the ‘About’ page). Click the ‘edit’ link and make some changes.

I stole this information from: http://www.problogger.net/archives/2006/08/02/the-problem-of-default-about-pages/

I just wanted to pass it along since I couldn’t find it very easily.
