WordPress 3.3 “Sonny” has been released as of a few days ago. While I won’t go into details since you can read them all here. I did want to mention something I get asked about often; “What’s coming in the NEXT WordPress release?”. Due to the open source nature of WordPress, there is a public WordPress roadmap of the planned features for coming versions you can read by clicking that link.  http://core.trac.wordpress.org/roadmap 

Always remember to backup your site/content before doing any major/minor update to WordPress.  This means running WP-DB-Backup plugin BEFORE you update.  A great tool is Backup Buddy.  You spend hours and hours of time pouring into your site…why not pay for a little insurance and sleep safe and sound at night?   I’ve had several users lose their content forever b/c a plugin crashed and corrupted their database.  Losing thousands of comments and hundreds of posts in an instant is a sickening feeling.  Save yourself by purchasing this plugin.
