Maybe it’s just me but little improvements like this really excite me about the coming WordPress 3.0 release. I realize that there are a lot of exciting new features, additions and big changes being made in WordPress 3.0, but I am especially glad that the developers are paying attention to minor usability improvements like this.

Oh yeah, the improvement, well here is a screenshot. The new “Privacy On” notification I noticed today when I upgraded to the latest nightly. This let’s me know that the state of my privacy settings and will be especially helpful for those of us that develop WordPress sites. Last thing you need to do is forget to set the proper privacy settings and get yourself knocked out of Google.

Like I said maybe it’s just me.

On that note I am really interested to see if the issue mentioned in this recent post concerning the wpautop function will be addressed in the coming release. I noticed that it is something that has been mentioned previously in Trac and I think it would go a long way in adding support for HTML5 moving forward.

So many things to look forward to in WordPress 3.0, so many new ideas to explore.

Have a suggestion for a post or see something that we could improve, please let us know!
