Well since the upgrade to WordPress 3.0 was released, the internet has been buzzing about the new changes. So here is a complete list of the changes from WordPress themselves:

Some of my favourite new features are the following:
1. Custom Background Support
All you do is include this line:
add_custom_background();
into your functions.php file in your theme folder. Once you activate it, you will be able to use the background panel in the theme admin to add an image of your choice, colour, position and a few other things. This function will add inline CSS styling to your body tag.
After uploading an image, you have the option to activate “Tile the background” and delete the background image.
2. Custom Menus
In previous versions of WordPress, you had to add things into the code when you wanted a new link in the navigation menu. Now in WordPress 3.0, you can do it simply by dragging and dropping a menu to be displayed, it’s just like widgets on the side bar. This powerful menu management has made it easier for many WordPress users, to organise the site navigation menu themselves.
That is all for right now, hope that helps.
