Like everything Apple, the iPod Touch’s design is a study in simplistic beauty.
However, as with most things tech, there are those that just can’t help but tinker, which is why one crafty designer named 6mik has created a theme for jailbroken iPod Touches called Whitoken that gives a whole new look and feel to the default interface.

BumpTop is a re-imagination of the desktop that aims to bring a real world style environment to your computer’s interface.

Last night I took the plunge and upgraded to WordPress 2.5, and so far, everything has been working as expected.
The install took about 5 minutes (not accounting for the back-up time) and went without a hitch. All of my plug-ins seem to be chugging along fine, and I haven’t noticed any drastic changes to the front of the scenes look of the site.
Behind the scenes is where most of WP 2.5’s changes occurred though, so I guess that’s to be expected. The whole interface was revamped, and changes include:
Let me know if you see anything go wonky in the next few days, but if you’re looking to make the switch/upgrade to WordPress 2.5, I give it two thumbs up.
