VNC stands for Virtual Network Computing. RealVNC is an “open source” piece of software that allows two or more computers to be connected while allowing one to be the host and the others to be the clients. It’s a remote control software which allows you to view and interact with one computer (the “server”) using a simple program (the “viewer”) on another computer anywhere on the Internet. It is platform independent, which means you can use VNC to view an office Linux machine on your Windows PC at home. VNC is freeware and publicly available and is in widespread active use by millions throughout industry, academia and privately. Even the banks like Canara bank use it [i have seen them using it].

Yesterday, on wordpress development blog matt announced the launch of much awaited upgrade to WordPress after months of their hard work. As matt says “The result is a new way of interacting with WordPress that will remain familiar to seasoned users while improving the experience for everyone.”

New customizable dashboard is “focused on the most relevant tasks”

New navigation in “new design” separates the navigation bar into two namely primary functions and secondary functions, thus, reduces the “number of navigation options in half”.

Some other life saving functions are like “multi-file upload, built-in galleries, one-click plugin upgrades, tag management, built-in Gravatars, full text feeds, and faster load times sound interesting”. All these will reduce a lot of burden from self hosted bloggers.

If you make frequent backups and you’re interested in helping us out with development by testing the new code, download and install Release Candidate 1 of WordPress 2.5

As they say personally they can’t wait, i have to say that Blogger’s Paradise is now proudly powered by WordPress 2.5.
