Some stories from around the blogosphere about people's experiences (so far) with WordPress 2.5:

• 5 things we love about WordPress 2.5 - by Josh Lowensohn from Webware - "The new system cross checks your plug-ins with the database at Wordpress.org, and if there's an update it will  both let you know, as well as give you a one click option to update it to the latest version."
• My brain dump after upgrading to Wordpress 2.5 - by Colin Devroe from cdevroe.com - "As with all Wordpress upgrades, it is as easy as advertised. I was able to click Upgrade and in a matter of milliseconds my database was updated. Since I hadn’t upgraded since prior to 2.2 I had a few plugins that were now rendered obsolete, so I deactivated them, edited only a few template tags, and deleted a few template files - and I was done."
• Upgraded to Wordpress 2.5 - by Michael Kimsal from michaelkimsal.com - "There are some slick aspects to it, and it’s been cleaned up some. However, it’s still Wordpress, for better or for worse. I guess it’s mostly “for better” (I’m still using it!) but there are some things that still bug me which I was hoping were addressed. I’ll list those in a moment, but I will say the ‘multiple media’ file upload (done in Flash) is a nice feature."
• Wordpress 2.5: don’t be scared - by Cellobella from Redsultana - "But do your homework. Maybe you’d like to wait a little longer. Make sure all the bugs are discovered. Fair enough. You don’t have to upgrade. If you do want to - the instructions on Wordpress worked really well for me."
• Goodbye Movable Type, Hello WordPress - by Mike Davidson from Mike Industries - "I didn’t even plan to change platforms, but after more than a week of trying unsuccessfully to move from Movable Type 3.0 to Movable Type 4.0, this blog was in such a state of disarray under the covers that I began to wonder if switching to WordPress would be quicker altogether."
