If you haven’t heard, WordPress version 2.6 was released this month, nearly a month ahead of its projected release date. It has loads of new features that can help you, and your blogging staff, to blog better, faster, and more conveniently. Some of the exciting features include: a theme preview. No longer do you have to change the theme completely in order to try something out. This is a huge bonus for bloggers who aren’t quite sure how different layouts and such will affect the overall layout, look, and feel. And, obviously, it’s far less disruptive to any blog readers who may be checking out the site—imagine refreshing the page and finding the blog you’re trying to read changing its look three times in 10 minutes! There’s also a great new feature that will help bloggers capture those impulsive, inspired blogging moments while they’re surfing the web—the PressThis! feature. Inspired by other favorite sites of WordPress developers, this plugin button can be added to your toolbar and lets popup blogging happen anytime, anywhere on the web. This is great for getting more blogs posted daily, since there’s far less switching between windows and losing valuable inspiration due to desktop dynamics. The WordPress blog (http://wordpress.org/development/2008/07/wordpress-26-tyner/) also has a great three and a half minute video you can plug into your own blog for your blogging staff to check out. Happy blogging!
