- WordPress Widgets you no longer need a separate plugin as widgets are now built-into the code by default. Wordpress 2.2 allows you to simply reorganize and customize your sidebar by using drag-and-drop. In my opinion having the widgets as part of the code is a great idea and it means that you don’t need to have the Widget plugin installed if you have already.
- Full Atom support, includes updating our Atom feeds to use the 1.0 standard spec and including an implementation of the Atom Publishing API to complement our XML-RPC interface.
Aaron Brazell has a great list of all the new features available in the latest release of WordPress, version 2.2.
