WordPress 2.7 coming tomorrow

According to DownloadSquad and WordPress.com, WordPress 2.7 is coming out tomorrow.

As promised, here is the advance notice that WordPress 2.7 is coming to WordPress.com, and will go live on Thursday, December 4, 2008 at 8pm Eastern Time.

That’s 9 a.m. in Kuala Lumpur!

WordPress 2.7 represents a huge shift away from earlier versions of WordPress – at least in the administration area. Most of the changes will be visible to bloggers, but not blog readers. But the changes in the admin area are huge. First, the navigation menus have all been moved to the left side of the screen, giving you more room at the top of the page. The submenus are all also collapsible, which allows you to navigate the administration interface without reloading the page as often.

I’m excited to see what changes are afoot. I’ll definitely benefit from this, especially if they include the “auto-blog” feature. Makes my job a lot easier. 😉
