1. A sign of the times, Ft Hood should be a wake up call! Every day, it seems, there is something new, something happens...
2. The Nobel Peace Prize or the Ultra Progressive Liberal of the Year Award? I think I have seen it all now, for Obama...
3. What has really happened to America, are we dumb or just numb? After watching Glenn Beck today, I had a realization hit...

I know that there are tons of new features, but where are they? I have been playing with WP 3.0 since it was available for any kind of testing, using the WordPress Beta Tester plugin, set to the “cutting edge” option, and yes, I am aware of the new “menu” feature, but, I am not sure how this is helpful, If a special menu is needed, I build it. I understand that it now works for unlimited sites, I guess this is a BuddyPress or WPMU thing, it does nothing for me, I only have like 30 sites!  Oh, the now bolder “ENTER TITLE HERE” line when adding a new page or post is kinda neat, if you didn’t know where to put the title before because it was a bit hard to see, the white areas just blended in and new users had a tough time, so, this is a plus, but, where are all of the new goodies?

Ok, I am being a bit sarcastic here, yes, there are too many new things for me to list, but, most are not readily visible to the naked eye, these are the things that will help theme and plugin developers to add even more goodies, that can be seen, so, if you are new to WordPress, hang on to your shorts, this is going to get good! Watch the video, or read more here. Just so you can get a grasp on how fast the download process started, I just happened to be upgrading a plugin, and saw that 3.0 was available, when I looked to see how many had downloaded it, it was at only about 10,000, I got this screen-shot about 30 minutes later!

This video is fantastic, from WordCamp San Francisco, Matt Mullenweg is really a funny guy, the story of WordPress and the whole 3.0 release is very interesting too.

Looking at the picture, you notice that there really isn’t much difference between the figures, but, the yellow one with it’s hand up saying here I am, does your business do that? What Brand have you created for your business? Think os the branding of something we all know, McDonalds, when you see those arches you immediately know ehat it is. When people can associate an image with the business, it sticks and they can remember it.

When you are creating an image for your business, it needs to be something that is simple and carries through all of your marketing and advertising efforts, be it an ad, a business card, or a website, branding your business is very important and helps your advertising work better for you.

Always remember, a potential customer must see your ad a minimum of seven times, before they will remember it, and, that is if, you have created an effective brand, if you don’t stand out, they may never notice it!
