Having just upgraded to Sonny and had a brief jam session with him, I would say that WordPress 3.3 successfully achieves this aim. Now that it has, I hope that WordPress 3.4 will focus on total social media integration.<\/p>\n<div class=\"zemanta-pixie\" style=\"margin-top: 10px; height: 15px;\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"zemanta-pixie-img\" style=\"float: right;\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/img.zemanta.com\/pixy.gif?w=840\" alt=\"\" \/><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>5 months, 4 betas, 3 release candidates, 2 many developers to name, 1 jazz saxophonist&#8230;Wordpress 3.3 has lift off.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":false,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2}},"categories":[1,323],"tags":[325,327,328,329,326,674,324],"class_list":["post-605","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized","category-wordpress","tag-ipad","tag-jazz","tag-saxophonist","tag-sonny-stitt","tag-tumblr","tag-wordpress","tag-wordpress-3-3"],"aioseo_notices":[],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p1cZYU-9L","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack-related-posts":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/paul-d.tv\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/605","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/paul-d.tv\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/paul-d.tv\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/paul-d.tv\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/paul-d.tv\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=605"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"http:\/\/paul-d.tv\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/605\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":610,"href":"http:\/\/paul-d.tv\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/605\/revisions\/610"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/paul-d.tv\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=605"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/paul-d.tv\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=605"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/paul-d.tv\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=605"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
