  • One-click plugin installs.
  • Automatic upgrade of WordPress .
  • Embed support, tied in with shortcodes .
  • Reply to comments from admin.
  • Sitemaps by default.

Thanks for pointing out, but I didn’t forget it to mention in the post. I wrote this article when WP 2.7 was not available so I’ve mentioned only few features that were known to me at that time.
