Wordpress 2.7 Released!
Wordpress, the go-to blogging platform for the vast majority of bloggers out there, has been given a major facelift with version 2.7. It had been in testing now for the past few weeks, but is now available to the general public and you can go download it here.
As you can see from the screenshot below, the UI has been DRASTICALLY redesigned to be far more user-friendly and attractive:
From playing around with it for the past 5 minutes or so, I have to say that it is a serious improvment over the UI from version 2.6. The ability to write a short post directly from the home screen is outstanding, and may become my main method of posting. Also, finally the ability to post YouTube videos directly to a post without fiddling with the code or using plugins has been implemented correctly. YAY.
So far so good Wordpress. Now I’m off to make sure everything is still working right.
