This month’s featured WordPress theme is Glassical, once again brought to you by Smashing Magazine.
Glassical is a nice clean theme with a good attention to detail. It’s light and modern, and it has support for threaded comments and other neat WordPress features. The typography is nice, and I particularly like the slick, glassy search bar.
The metadata section on post pages is interesting. I like the tags’ styling, though I’m not too crazy about expending so much room for showing which categories are applied to a post. (Ideally a post should only be assigned to one category, as per the “categories = binders, tags = an index” argument.) Oh well, it’s tweakable.
The comments are pretty good as well, with support for nesting and Gravatars included.

TwitterI'm liking Reddit's new Emergency Maintenance page. Cool design, and it flashes up amusing quips. Such as "you have refreshed x times."
