Introducing WordPress 3.0 “Thelonious”

►

Find out what the buzz is all about around the recent release of WordPress 3.0. To read the official WordPress 3.0 realease article visit http://wordpress.org/development/2010/06/thelonious/.

I’ve been playing with it recently and so far have been blown away by the easy to use Admin interface. Install, upgrade from older versions of WordPress and general site configuration and set-up have all been simple and quick to do.

One of the greatest things about WordPress is not just the product but the community behind it. People who are passionate about developing cutting edge technology that appeals to the masses and empowers them to do what they want, how they want by themselves with the confidence of a supporting community – if it is required.

Watch the video below to find out more about the philosophy of WordPress and what is planned for the future.
