WordPress is the software that powers this site and a few million others. This update is a big one and includes a lot of very nice features, many of which were only available by using custom themes and plugins. It should be a very good version to get your feet wet if you haven't started your own site yet. Take a look at the short video below for some of the features.

WordPress 3.0 “Thelonious”
Arm your vuvuzelas: WordPress 3.0, the thirteenth major release of WordPress and the culmination of half a year of work by 218 contributors, is now available for download (or upgrade within your dashboard). Major new features in this release include a sexy new default theme called Twenty Ten. Theme developers have new APIs that allow them to easily implement custom backgrounds, headers, shortlinks, menus (no more file editing), post types, and taxonomies. (Twenty Ten theme shows all of that off.) Developers and network admins will appreciate the long-awaited merge of MU and WordPress, creating the new multi-site functionality which makes it possible to run one blog or ten million from the same installation. As a user, you will love the new lighter interface, the contextual help on every screen, the 1,217 bug fixes and feature enhancements, bulk updates so you can upgrade 15 plugins at once with a single click, and blah blah blah just watch the video. 
(In HD, if you can, so you can catch the Easter eggs.)
