Woke up with WordPress 3.02

There seems to have lots of updates these days. First, the WWDC 2010 brought us the latest iPhone 4 (available next month) which I myself don’t have the right budge for and will not consider getting it in a short run. What I was impressed is that the 960 by 640 resolution and the end of AT&T iphone. Also getting an iphone from Wal-Mart where you shop for your dinner is fun.

Next is the Safari 5 browser which claimed to have twice the speed as Firefox 3.6. Still it takes up too much memory compared with Chrome and Firefox and the overall performance still needs to be improved. The HTML5 enhancement it brought lighted up thousands of firms and designers. I myself didn’t really appreciate the online Flash for a while (mainly because of their consuming the 100% CPU of my Mac) thus the new features really impresses me, at least for a period.

Third is the Mac OS X 10.6.4 which, too, didn’t bring me much tensions since few features are provides while tons of bugs are fixed (still two tons out there :) ). And the forth is the new iTunes 9.2 which solved the loading speed of the Artwork of Album and it’s impressing.

And last but not least, the WordPress which built our site. Woke up this morning and found that the upgrade notice of the latest WordPress 3.0 shown in the back end of the site. The upgrade process took few seconds (weird) and there’s no database upgrade. Guess I may have missed some parts and will check back in a while.

About the 3.0 version, the very best thing for me with the latest upgrade of WordPress is the TinyMCE. Some people like me who has been using the WordPress since the early version (sorry, can’t remember which one) and continue upgrading may encounter some problems. I’ve been poking around the support forum for some times but ended without answers to several questions. Among one of them is the WP editor (good to go with newly installed ones but not old ones). Right now the editor works like a charm to me and am quite satisfied so far. There are also many new features out there and we may try some of them in the future. Say, the Custom Post Type, Advanced Menus (currently using CSS for the feature on the site) and Multisite (which is not allowed on our server). Find out what’s new on the official website.

  1. Refreshed and I see this on the front page =p.
    I suppose nothing much changed for an author like me?

    • I guess so :) There are not many changes to daily blogging and would love to see changes on the UI of the back end.
