I started drafting out a huge post dedicated to the release of WordPress 3.0 when it hit me.

Anything that I could possibly say about 3.0 will either be covered by one of the hundreds of WordPress-focused blogs or by the WordPress team itself. Honestly, it’s not like I’m going to dig through the codex to find out what’s hot with the new version of WordPress. I was going to get my information from WordPress.org and the WordPress blogosphere anyway.

So without further ado, I present to you the WordPress 3.0 video tour…

WordPress 3.0 New Feature Highlights:

  • Cleaner Admin Panel
    • Customer admin login and password on install
    • Unified update page.
  • New default theme
  • Custom menus/navigation
  • “Shortlink Support”
  • Merged with WPMU features
