WordPress 3.0 Overview

It is here and live. The brand new WordPress 3.o is available now. Take a look at this video overview from wordpress.tv.  It covers the basics of the new design and functionality.

WordPress MU integration

If you are not familiar. A few years ago some good folks at WordPress.com decided to make their version of wordpress multi-site available to the wider community. This provided a chance for the rest of us to develop multiple sites/blogs  under one installation. Now this functunality was truely amazing.

But now all of this functionality has been integrated with the wordpress.org installs. With a minor tweek to the install you can have all this functionality with every installation. Why would you use this….? Well, it may be that you just simply want a couple of different content areas for your websites. You may want a different layout and look for your blog verses your corporate website or your .tv video tutorial pages. There are a thousand reasons to do it….take a look and let your imagination go.
