I decided I needed some geeky play time this evening, so I downloaded the latest cvs build of WordPress (yes they skipped numbers) and ran it in a dev environment, just for me to look, poke, and play. I’m floored. A rundown of what I see/like:
Themes – Makes sense, needed to happen. [...]
About freaking time. It’s depressing it took so long.
Amazing how bias some of the media has been. $350 is the largest donation so far cash wise, but quite a few nations have cleared the effected countries debt’s away. That means the money those countries would have to pay can now be used [...]

A Festivus for the Rest of Us
At least some people are in the holiday spirit. I’m celebrating this year (minus the pole I have yet to get).
