I sit writing this, staring at the snow loftily falling from the sky in graceful drifts, cascading down to earth in a bizarre yet beautiful fashion, and think about the timing of everything. It’s Christmas, and it’s an important time for sharing time with family. And the software releases slowly cease coming up until Christmas. And yet, one company is still very hard at working building its new release – that’ll be WordPress.
WordPress, for those of you who aren’t aware, is pretty much my favourite platform.
Anyway, it’s been updated to 2.9 – you have to get this, it’s probably the best update yet, especially for developers. Everything snaps together. I mean, one simple yet ultimately useful feature is the ability to add alternative text to an image without having to add a caption then remove the caption via HTML – simple, and yet so, so useful.
Tomorrow I’ll outline all the new capabilities with WordPress 2.9.
