Just got a word from Matt Mullenweg that Wordpress 2.9 is now available for download. I am not really surprised as Wordpress has been releasing new versions to the powerful CMS Wordpress and their updates hasn’t failed to impress. They update their versions too often that I get too lazy to update my sites to the new versions since there will be another one coming after I do my update. Wordpress 2.9 is the latest baby!
While I have updated my 1st blog to Wordpress 2.8, this blog is still running on Wordpress 2.3.1. Talk about living under a rock. Anyway, I don’t normally update that often too as newer versions maybe too vulnerable to attacks than old versions. I am not sure if I am correct though.
Here is a snippet of the email Matt sent and I am sure you received it too:
What are people so excited about? Some of the headline features are global undo/trash, built-in image editor, batch upgrades, plugin compatibility checker, and easier embeds. You can read all about it and watch a handy intro video here:
