    Very cool, I’m excited about the link find/replace feature… there is a plugin that does that, but I’m excited about native support- keep up the great work matt!

    Can’t wait to see what else is ahead for WP.com, especially if the future holds more Post Formats (beyond asides and gallery, that is).

    And speaking of asides, we’re now up to 15 million blogs from the 13 million you mentioned at WCJeru in September? (!)

    • Matt November 19, 2010 @ 11:30 am

      Yep, we added over 900k new blogs in the past month.

    So… I’ll finally upgrade from 3.0b2 to 3.1b? :) Keep up the great work!

    Thanks Matt and your team for the job! I’m so hopeful with the internal link feature, It could save a lot of time to us. Regards from southern Spain.

    Awesome! I can’t wait! I am looking forward to the option of different post styles (links, quotes, etc).

  • Marc November 20, 2010 @ 1:59 pm

    Did you say 900,000 new blogs – wow! I’m excited that the new release will fix some of the bugs I have been experiencing when using the IE9 browser. Thanks!

    Matt (not the ma.tt) and Sean obviously don’t blog at wordpress.com or they might not be so enthusiastic.

  • Gouri November 21, 2010 @ 1:39 am

    That’s exciting. I’m especially looking forward to the ‘Post Formats’ feature, which Lorelle said is not yet available.

  • Domenico November 22, 2010 @ 4:18 pm

  • Alek November 23, 2010 @ 1:15 pm
