The launch of WordPress 2.8
Wow, have you heard? WordPress has announced that the newest version, 2.8 which was thought to be held off till September has actually been a secret project. They have announced that WP 2.8 has already been worked on and will be available today!
Just in case..
Did you realize this was a April fools joke? Hopefully you weren’t to fooled, mine wasn’t as cruel as a few other out there in the web. 🙂

Hah hah.. of course the real issue is that the folks at ExpressionEngine (EllisLabs) have made a Quark-style bid to buy out Automattic, Inc., projects – including the previously open-source WordPress.com software, Akismet (with a roll-in to the existing EE version of Akismet), BBPress (as expected), PollDaddy and Gravatar.
Apparently – they will NOT be doing anything with IntenseDebate and BuddyPress. WordPress for iPhone support will be dropped later this month – possibly even later today.
Ugh… more Open Source software swallowed up.
