wordpresslogo WordPress 3.0 Thelonious ReleasedIf you haven’t logged into your WordPress dashboard recently, you may have missed the release of the latest major update for WordPress which is now at version 3.0 and features loads of cool new features and fixes:

Major new features in this release include a sexy new default theme called Twenty Ten. Theme developers have new APIs that allow them to easily implement custom backgrounds, headers, shortlinks, menus (no more file editing), post types, and taxonomies. (Twenty Ten theme shows all of that off.) Developers and network admins will appreciate the long-awaited merge of MU and WordPress, creating the new multi-site functionality which makes it possible to run one blog or ten million from the same installation. As a user, you will love the new lighter interface, the contextual help on every screen, the 1,217 bug fixes and feature enhancements
