The WordPress team is doing some awesome work these days. They’ve just released WordPress MU 1.0. The MU stands for multi-user.. This is the software that powers wordpress.com; it lets you set up a site that hosts thousdands of blogs. Perfect for setting up a walled garden.

Also check out bbPress. It’s forum software that doesn’t suck. I wish bbPress was around when we set up the-forum-that-shall-not-be-named..

Also, the WordPress Team just released WordPress 2.0.5, which has a ton of bugfixes. They are on a roll!

Lastly, Laughing Squid points to this awesome Flickr Photo Album WordPress plugin. Check out Scott’s example of his full flickr album. He writes:

Another fantastic feature of this plugin is that it adds a “photo” tab in the upload section of your WordPress editing screen. That gives you access all of your photos or even other people’s photos (searching by tag). Once you find the photo you want to include with your blog post, just click on it and you are presented with 5 size options. Choose the size you want and it will automatically add the correct code to your blog post at the cursor location. This blows away the WordPress photo upload feature or Flickr’s “Blog This” option.

Thanks to Joe Tan who wrote the flickr plugin :)
