WTF - WHO Cares That WP 2.5.1 Is Released?!?!
We use Google Reader here at OIBO to keep track of the dozens of blogs we visit daily. However in reviewing the top stories. We talke about it a few posts ago where we said you can Easily Manage All Your RSS Feeds Using Google Reader.
So can you imagine the surprise when we opened up Google Reader today and saw no less than 5 posts from top tier blogs that WP 2.5.1 has been released.
I mean seriously - WTF!? If you log into your WP you will have already seen that the upgrade is available. Do you really need John Chow or the folks over at Daily Blog Tips to tell YOU that there is a new version of WordPress available.
Do you even care?
Don’t you log into your blog at least a zillion times per day?
If you’re not keeping your WP install up-to-date, and your WordPress installed gets hacked - then my friend - too bad, so sad. You deserve it.
Anyway since everyone else is talking about WP 2.5.1 - we’ll do the same.
There are over 70 other fixes in WP 2.5.1 - here is a taste of a few:
- Performance improvements for the Dashboard, Write Post, and Edit Comments pages.
- Better performance for those who have many categories
- Media Uploader fixes
- An upgrade to TinyMCE 3.0.7
- Widget Administration fixes
- Various usability improvements
- Layout fixes for IE

Bah, ya know what? I’m not even thinking of upgrading for at least 2-3 more releases, maybe even 3.0 lol.
Seriously, to have that many “bugs” and one MAJOR security flaw in less then a month of release is sheer laziness on the development end.
Unless of course most of the WP developers have moved from Microsoft, then it all makes sense.
