src="http://web.archive.org/web/20090203100724im_/http://ec.mashable.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/09/wordpress_logo.jpg" alt="" align="right"/>The new version of <a href="http://web.archive.org/web/20090203100724/http://wordpress.org/" target="_blank">WordPress</a> - version 2.7, codenamed “Coltrane” - is now available, and I’ll skip to the part I think users will like the most: no more manual updates. That’s right, the new WordPress now has an <strong>automatic update system</strong> which will notify you of new versions and let you upgrade your blog with a single click. </p> <p>Of course, this won’t help much if you’ve messed with the code (like I always do), but at least you don’t have to go through the process of manually updating your blog every time a new version is out, which intimidates many users. </p> <p>Other important changes are speed (WordPress should now be all-around faster) and the ability to customize every screen. If you never use a certain option, you can now click on “Screen Options” and remove it, move it around, or turn it into an icon if your screen estate is limited. </p> <p>For an introduction to new WordPress features check out the video below, and you can <a href="http://web.archive.org/web/20090203100724/http://wordpress.org/development/2008/12/27-release-candidate-two/"

It is my platform of choice, easy to customize themes, lots of plugins (also fairly easy to modify) and there is some very detailed documentation on making WP dance the way you want.</p> <p>In my opinion, the changes put into 2.7 are outstanding and help save time and make the entire process of running a blog much more efficient.</p> <p>~Eric</p> </li> <li class="alt" id="comment-11368668">
