After a fairly hectic week I finally got around to installing a test version of WordPress 2.5. As far as I can tell with WordPress 2.5 you can change the feed url for incoming links to point to Technorati, and it’ll work perfectly without my plugin:

Just my feelings on 2.5 really quickly - RC1 seems to be running much slower than 2.3.3 on my test server, and while the new admin page is cool in that it is customizable - I really dislike the new look. It’s just fugly.
Update: While testing a plugin I’m working on for someone, I tried fiddling with some of my settings for the 2.5 install and found out one of my changes to the code was causing a little slowdown in the admin panel. It seems to be running at full speed now. Still not as fast as 2.3.3, but it’s close enough.
