Looking Ahead at WordPress 2.6

With Firefox 3 out, now I need something else to look forward to in the area of tech.  Hmm, WordPress is already working on version 2.6 you say?  I like WordPress, and the hinted at list of new features looks to be building on an already solid 2.5.

Here are a few things to look forward to in WordPress 2.6:

  • Post Revisioning
  • A “Press This” bookmarklet for tumblelog style quick posting
  • A new image editing dialog that offers lots of control over the images in your posts
  • Theme previewing as seen on WordPress.com
  • Built-in word counting in the post editor
  • The ability to relocate your content directory
  • The ability to move wp-config.php out of your web root
  • Drag-and-drop sortable galleries
  • Bulk delete, activate, and deactivate for plugins
  • Check box range selection with shift-click

You can check out the full list of goodies over at Ryan’s blog and also pickup the beta 1 if you have a place you’d like to play with it.
