WordCast

That’s right! Automattic has finally announced the long-awaited WordPress 2.7 user interface! (Took long enough, didn’t it?) Please enjoy this screenshot, and a quote from the official post:

As you know, one of the goals of 2.7 was to reduce the necessity to load new screens just to access sub-navigation menus; we wanted the most-used screens to be within a click or two at most. If you’ve been using the nightly builds, you got used to the arrow controls that allowed you to expand and contract the menus. Then you got used to the box-style with icons that not only opened and closed vertically, but could be minimized horizontally as well, leaving a remnant of icons to provide a kind of “advanced mode,” though you don’t need to be particularly advanced to use it. Now that we have real button styles (the icons are still placeholders, and we hope to have some new ones soonish), we’ve nailed down the menu functionality.

We’ll give you a more in-depth look on the next episode of WordCast!

We rejected this list in episode 31, so we decided to make our OWN list of influential people. (Everyone’s equal- we love them the same!)

It appears that the feeds on this site haven’t been updating correctly due to a recent change in the content managament system we run on, WordPress.

Listeners have been reporting feeds not updating and the iTunes listings being blank. I’ve fixed what I believe to be the problem so we’ll see if that solves it. If you notice any other problems or see that this one is continuing, please send an email to mail at bitwire dot tv.

Thanks for your help and patience as we work through this.
