A couple hours ago the first release candidate for WordPress 2.5 was released and I felt the urge to test it out on here and write a quick post about it. I like the new color scheme in the dashboard. Also the ability to add media to a post is quite cool. Now it’s possible even easier, to link to most media types with a URL. (flickr, youtube, mp3) Neat stuff! Sadly attempting to link to a YouTube clip failed for me along with linking to an image URL. Time to feed the testers mailing list, because the WYSIWYG editor is broken as well when attempting to create hyperlinks and couple other things. Good thing it’s not difficult to create hyperlinks manually. 
update: youtube link worked now after the post has been edited. hmm
it’d be nice if the *tube/flv automagically embeded with a player.

This is about me. There are a lot of things i dislike, and like. I write about stuff that is on my mind. If you don't like it don't read it. If something doesn't make sense to you then look it up, or ask. If it sounds ridiculous, it is. If you wish to make a comment, please do. By the way, I still could use some gainful employment. Are you willing to hire a legal medical cannabis patient? I also have a twitter account. twitter.com/px
