  • Like a Post? Well Then, “Like” It!
    Starting today you’ll notice a new feature at the bottom of all WordPress.com blog posts. We’ve enabled a “Like” button, which, when clicked, shows a Gravatar image for all the bloggers who like a post. When you “like” a post two core things happen.

Internet regulations require that your name, address, email, and phone number be accessible 24/7 to anybody who wants to see them just by looking up your domain. This rule was created to make it easy [...]

    Back in February, we launched Publicize: Facebook as a way to connect your WordPress.com account to your Facebook profile. In March, VideoPress added support for Facebook so that when using Publicize, your videos would get added to your Facebook update as well. Until now, we’ve neglected your images. Starting today, however, we’ll cherish your images [...]
