  • Autosave makes sure you never lose a post again.
  • Our completely redone visual editor also now includes spell checking.
  • You can set any page to be the front page of your site, and put the latest posts somewhere else, making it much easier to use WordPress as a content management system.
  • Links in your blogroll now support sub-categories and you can add categories on the fly.
  • The upload manager lets you easily manage all your uploads pictures, video, and audio.
  • Much more efficient database code, faster than previous versions.

    Yeah that front page feature is really neat, it will certainly expand the use of Wordpress as a content management platform

    Just upgraded my blog and it went fine. All my plugins worked fine too which was a bit of a worry. A happy blogger :)
