As regular readers of this blog (if they do in fact exist) know, I like to run the latest trunk/build of WordPress - among other reasons because it gives me the ability to spot new features before they make it into the final release.

Today I just spotted a new feature, which will probably make its way into WordPress 2.6: Word count. It delivers no more than it promises: A simple count of how many words your blog entry consists of. It updates every time the post is saved.

You can click the screenshot below to see how it works:

The current version of WordPress is, surprise surprise, 2.5.

• WordPress 2.7: Administration interfaces gets new design (again) (11)
• WordPress 2.6 Beta 2 (0)
• New plugins handling in WordPress 2.6 (1)
• New in WordPress 2.7 trunk: QuickPress (1)
• WordPress 2.6 to support Google Gears (29)
