I have spend some time today to update my wordpress to the new 2.6 version! It has been officially released a week ago, and almost a month ahead of schedule.

WordPress 2.6 contants a number of new features that make it a more powerful CMS. That means we can also track changes to every posts, pages and easily post from anywhere on the web and dozens of incremental improvements to the features introduced in version 2.5.

One of the most interesting things was that the “Press This” bookmarklet (you can add to your toolbar that provides a fast and smart popup to do posts to your WordPress blog) has some nifty autodetection which will make it easy to automatically embed content from YouTube and Flickr! For example, when I click “Press This” from a YouTube page it will magically extract the video embed code, and if I do it on a Flickr page it will make you easier to put the image in the post.

Here are some of the smaller features and improvements in 2.6:

• Word count! Never guess how many words are in your post anymore.
• Image captions, so you can add sweet captions like Political Ticker does under your images.
• Bulk management of plugins.
• A completely revamped image control to allow for easier inserting, floating, and resizing. It’s now fully integrated with the WYSIWYG.
• Drag-and-drop reordering of Galleries.
• Plugin update notification bubble.
• Customizable default avatars.
• You can now upload media when in full-screen mode.
• Remote publishing via XML-RPC and APP is now secure (off) by default, but you can turn it on easily through the options screen.
• Full SSL support in the core, and the ability to force SSL for security.
• You can now have many thousands of pages or categories with no interface issues.
• Ability to move your wp-config file and wp-content directories to a custom location, for “clean” SVN checkouts.
• Select a range of checkboxes with “shift-click.”
• You can toggle between the Flash uploader and the classic one.
• A number of proactive security enhancements, including cookies and database interactions.
• Stronger better faster versions of TinyMCE, jQuery, and jQuery UI.
• Version 2.6 fixes approximately 194 bugs.

If you are a theme authors, there were also improved support for SSL and some other new helper functions which will be useful for you.

I’ve been using WordPress since 2004 and it is the bEST blogging platform ever! Download WordPress 2.6 here!

I had a very realistic dream last night that I was pregnant. It was a short dream. In the dream, I was on a bed and waiting to give birth to a baby. There was only a little pain and all of the sudden, there was a baby girl in my arms.

First off, most dreams are not prophetic. Second, I never think of having a baby at this time, so I decided to look online and here are some interpretations that I have found:

TarotForum.com:
To dream of giving birth or see someone else giving birth, suggests that you are giving birth to a new idea or project. It also represents a new attitude, fresh beginnings or a major upcoming event. Alternatively, the dream may be calling attention to your inner child and the potential for your to grow. A more direct interpretation of this dream, may represent your desires/ anxieties of giving birth or the anticipation for such an event to occur.

ExperienceFestival.com
Women who are pregnant and men who are going to be fathers commonly have dreams about giving birth. It is not an omen of anything to come, but simply the mind trying to cope with a significant anxiety-provoking event. If you or your mate are not pregnant, this dream could symbolize new beginnings (i.e. giving birth to new ideas, new ways of living, or a new stage in life). Superstition-based dream interpretations say that giving birth in a dream is a sign of good luck, while multiple births are omens of forthcoming material wealth.

The birth of a human child is a universal symbol for good news, happiness, and/or a whole new life. The birth of twins or triplets indicates wealth. If the birth involved friendly animals such as dogs, cats, horses or dolphins, then allies who will be of great assistance to you soon surround you. The birth of scary animals, however, such as predators of all kinds, indicates the opposite: Your adversaries are gaining ground and you need to strengthen your resources.

For a married woman to dream of giving birth to a child, great joy and a handsome legacy is foretold.
For a single woman, loss of virtue and abandonment by her lover.

PeacefulMind.com
If the dreamer is a woman and you dream you are pregnant then you will see a big increase in your income, but if you are unwed and sad you will experience losses. For a man to dream that he is the father of the child he is warned about indiscriminate sexual relations and one night stands.

Sleeps.com
Giving birth to a baby boy means a sorrow or illness , so there are 3 problems on the way.
Giving birth to a girl means a happiness or a health case is on the way.

As a conclusion, my dream would probably be interpreted this way: The birth appears to be a sign of a new beginning and going to have a little difficulties. In the dream, I was about to give birth, which probably means the "new idea" is actually quite new or I’m a little over half-way through it. I think the reason that the dream ended in afterbirth is because my mental concerns about my latest project had been answered – everything will turn out fine.

Ever since I was a child, I always dreamed of wearing my pyjamas to school. I get very scare because all of my friends were wearing their school uniforms accept me.

Here’s what I found:

To see or wear pajamas in your dream, suggests that you need to relax and get some rest. In particular, if you dream that you are wearing pajamas in public, then it means that you are unaware of some important that may be right in front of you. You may be just drifting through life without fully paying attention to what is going on around you.
