Long awaited for, and finally released for your blogging pleasure… (drumroll, please!) WordPress 2.8 Baker, the stable version has been officially released, and is now ready for you! There is much to be excited about with this newest release! 
Now easier than ever, you are no longer limited to the number of widgets you can use, and you have greater flexibility to select where to use them. Using the drag and drop feature of the widgets couldn’t be easier! For the developer, they’ve even added a widget api feature so you can dream up what your widget wishes desire.
Need to change or update your theme? No problem! With the new WordPress 2.8 theme browser, you won’t even need to leave your WordPress blog admin panel to view the themes available to you. Even better, is the fact that once you’ve selected the theme that gets you jazzed, you may then customize the theme colors to your liking, directly from your WordPress admin panel, and without having to know html to do it! You simply check the boxes that best represent what you want to change. It couldn’t be easier!
As I mentioned before, if you have been using Blogger for it’s widget-ready ease of use, but really want more control of your website, with features like full cpanel access etc., you must give WordPress 2.8 your full attention now! A picture is worth a thousand words, and a video is even worth more, so take less than 5 minutes and watch the WordPress 2.8 Video!
With all of that in mind, I can really say…Happy blogging!
