It should come as an surprise that I am a big fan of WordPress, after all that is what I am using to blog with. Today I came over the feature list of has been implemented and/or is on the list of being implemented for WordPress upcoming release of version 2.8. The list is impressive. On the list are an improved Widget user interface, new Theme Installer routines, improved Plugin search and one of my favorites: GeoData for posts, comments, attachments, etc.

And … Yesterday WordPress for iPhone 1.2 got released. Based on feedback from users the following improvements have made it in to this version:

  • Landscape mode with the extra wide keyboard (also something that Apple included more system wide in iPhone OS 3.0)
  • Link creation help
  • Support for editing and creating Pages
  • Comment moderation
  • Asynchronous publishing
  • Photo resizing options (sadly a bug made it in to the final release)
