WordPress 2.9
WordPress 2.9 is out! It’s got some cool new features – a trash bin, better support for video embedding (which has been a major pain in the past), and a bunch of new features. One of the best things I’ve seen in the update documentation is this:
When you’re editing files in the theme and plugin editors it remembers your location and takes you back to that line after you save. (Thank goodness!!!)
The ‘Thank goodness!!!’ was their comment, not mine, which goes to show how annoying that bug was. Other than that, the built-in image editor is a pretty cool feature for on-the-go cropping and rotation, but time will tell whether I end up using it much. Either way, the upgrade process is a cinch, so it’s a no-brainer to get on the latest version of the greatest platform.

Enjoyed your take on WordPress 2.9. I agree, it has some cool features. WP 2.9 is a solid update, but am still looking for more in WordPress 3.0. Here’s my thoughts on the newest version of WordPress.
