I was a little worried, shall we say, since I had read of difficulty of fixing broken templates and bizarre lost functionality. I was also concerned, remembering how long it took to get used to the new dashboard style when Wordpress upgraded to 2.5, and how little there was to show for it.
This is different. They have redone the admin area to add all kinds of cool jquery javascript functionality. All the menus you need are in the sidebars now. Dropdowns appear with a click. No more multiple menus across the top of the page or waiting for pages to reload so you can get to the menu you need. No more scrolling down below the post to look for the menu you need or forgetting to put tags or categories because, out of sight, out of mind.
It’s just very intuitive. Even the menus that are below the post are all dropdowns.
And they even got rid of that nasty default color scheme.
Just check your posts when you update. I have found that about half of mine had their permalinks reset to the default format, not anything I wanted.
