With the release of Mac OS X Leopard (10.5), the simple, elegant, fast web browser Safari 3 is here.
Very soon we will release WordPress 2.5, and about the same time WordPress.com will be updated.
With Safari 3 and WordPress 2.5 you should finally have a great experience if Safari is your preferred browser.

As she says, “it’s a Wiki — feel free to add/clarify/edit/fix.”
Jennifer continues to provide essential contributions both to the codex and in [...]
