With WordPress 3.5 out of the gate just moments ago, you’re no doubt firing up your dashboards to run the upgrades for yourselves. Definitely do that, but for fun today I would also recommend pulling up the WordPress download counter and watching that number shoot  up fast.

3.4 saw well over 28 million downloads during its cycle (almost 29 million, really) and it’s not that often you can see this download counter as low as it will be today. Turn up some Elvin Jones and keep this one open in one of your browser tabs.

Happy upgrade day!
