For many people Wordpress is the first open source web application they will use. It's a great introduction to open source. In past surveys, we've seen as many as 25% (don't quote me) of Drupal users indicate that they used Wordpress before using Drupal. Many people use both.
Wordpress shares the same technology stack and many of the same open source community development principles. Here are some upcoming Wordpress Camps that you might want to attend and learn from:
