WordPress 2.5 is very nice with a much better interface. Its built-in gallery/multiple file uploader is great – providing you use the latest versions of Firefox/Flash, it seems, as this doesn’t seem to work on some of my browser/platform configurations here).

Automatic plug-in updating is a nice touch too.

It’s also much, much better to be able to ‘upload’ images from a URL rather than coding by hand for this. All it needs now is built-in support for embedding YouTube videos and they’ll be there.

 

[edited to add]

The IE7/PC issue is fixed with the very latest Flash version and some patching from the WordPress Trac
