The key addition for users will be the new support for tags which can now be added to posts as well as categories.<\/p>\n<p>For a long time, if users wanted a decent category structure as well as a more modern and specific tagging system, they had to go to third parties like <a href=\"http:\/\/www.neato.co.nz\/ultimate-tag-warrior\/\">Neato<\/a> who produce the highly popular Ultimate Tag Warrior (aka UTW). Now, WordPress has in-built support for tags meaning that the plugin developers can focus more on customisation and advanced features, relying on the fact that there&#8217;s a stable, supported system behind them. Users of UTW can automatically import their tags in WordPress 2.3.<\/p>\n<p>Managers of <a href=\"http:\/\/www.blogherald.com\/2007\/08\/10\/should-you-team-up\/\">multi-author blogs<\/a> (like insideTonic) are given some more control of workflow via the new &#8216;Pending Review&#8217; post status setting, while single users and admins alike will benefit from an improved update notification service for WP and installed plugins.<\/p>\n<p>There have also been some pretty serious changes made under the hood &#8211; in part because of the new availability of tags. As well as this, new SEO friendly URLs (particularly via the updated <a href=\"http:\/\/trac.wordpress.org\/ticket\/4554\">Canonical URL redirection system<\/a>).<\/p>\n<p>For the full list of new and updated features, see the <a href=\"http:\/\/codex.wordpress.org\/Version_2.3\">WordPress development site<\/a>.
