- The Definition Of Usability
- WordPress 2.7 And Usability
- The Usability Testing Centers/Environment
- How WordPress 2.7 Came To Be
- Is WordPress Bloated?
- Lessons Learned After WordPress 2.5 Was Released
- The Status Of WordPress 2.7 And Whether Or Not It Is Delayed

And much much more. Be sure to download the show and give it a listen and then come back here to leave a comment letting us know your thoughts regarding what was discussed. I easily consider this episode to be another classic WordPress Weekly.
