I just logged into this blog and noticed that version 3.0 is now available!!! Yuppie. I decided to check to see what features 3.0 offered and in summary here’s the highlight (they can be found on the wordpress.org website):

■WordPress and WordPress MU have merged, allowing the management of multiple sites (called Multisite) from one WordPress installation.  – this is an awesome feature
■New default theme “Twenty Ten” takes full advantage of the current features of WordPress.
■New custom menu management feature, allows creation of custom menus combining posts, pages, categories, tags, and links for use in theme menus or widgets.
■Custom header and background APIs.
■Contextual help text accessed under the Help tab of every screen in the WordPress administration.
■Ability to set the admin username and password during installation.
■Bulk updating of themes with an automatic maintenance mode during the process.
■Support for shortlinks.
■Improved Custom post types and custom taxonomies including hierarchical (category-style) support. (Try the Custom Post Type UI or GD Custom Posts And Taxonomies Tools plugins to see the possibilities.)
■A lighter admin color scheme to increase accessibility and put the focus more squarely on your content.

Here’s a short video tour of v3.0:

Before upgrading to the latest version make sure you backup your databases and files, just incase the upgrade process doesn’t successfully complete. There are quite a number of plugins available to automatically perform backups.
