WordPress 3.0 Released

The thirteenth major release of WordPress that took half a year of work by 218 contributors is now available. WordPress 3.0 has been named “Thelonious” and comes packed with plenty of new features including the sexy new default theme, Twenty Ten.

Other features includes an easy implementation of backgrounds, headers, shortlinks, menus, post types and taxonomies. The guys at WordPress have gone one step further and made available new APIs to allow theme developers the ability to implement these new features into their themes.
