I decided the other day to go ahead and go for it. I upgraded my WP to 2.5 even though it’s still a little raw. I thought that i would go ahead and get a feel for it so i could be up to par with what going to be the new WP standard. This way i’ll know if i should be using it for my clients or waiting for a better version.
There are a few new features that i think everyone is going to love. The Add Media is absolutely great. They cut out the need for a couple of plugins and helped out with placement of multimedia objects. (im really not that big on putting video on here anyway, but it’s still nice to know there thinking about me.)
Here are a few screen captures to take a peak at.
Another great option that has been added is that there are now three options for putting an image into a post.
What’s the big woop? well you can go to Setting / Miscellaneous and enter you sized for Thumbnail & Medium. You can still re-size it the way you’re used too. The actual big woop is the combination of these things when your uploading a huge image you dont have to scroll through you Post window to get to the corner. (again and again) – just another way to skin the cat -
ps – if you’re not a WP user thats nice, but ive used Blogger and its finiky and somewhat unreliable. The next time you get pissed off you should go check out WP. Im not telling you what to do, but do it anyway

Yeah…. Jeff Culmer!!
Hey I thought that was a great mini-cap on the 2.5 update. I finally did it this morning and I think I’m liking it. It will take a few more days to know, but I’m liking the updates.
I would agree it will take a little time to get all the new feature in my brain but its really nice.
