I’ve seen a lot of complaints about WordPress 2.5. Mainly people feel that the features coming in 2.5 don’t make up for skipping the 2.4 release earlier in the year. Personally, I’m eagerly awaiting 2.5. Why? This sneak peek sums it all up…
A customizable dashboard, multi-file upload, built-in galleries, one-click plugin upgrades, tag management, built-in Gravatars, full text feeds, and faster load times sound interesting? Then WordPress 2.5 might be the release for you.
There isn’t much I don’t like about WordPress, however I’ve found it annoying that there isn’t a “real” gallery for it. Sure, I could use some kind of flickr tie in, but darn it, I want my pictures hosted on my own site, not somewhere else. That, and WordPress’s current tag management system leaves much to be desired. Those two things alone make me happy.
