   You know, this one-

   http://en.blog.wordpress.com/2011/12/12/get-instant-feedback-when-you-publish/

   I am on rural dialup with a really slow connection, everything takes quite some while to do, unlike you fortunate folk who enjoy high speed internet ;) Not that the new sidebar doesn't look nice and all (don't get your feelings hurt, Scott!)...but for me it is a tad invasive and it just takes me more time and steps to view my finished posts. I was just fine with the former ways of editing and publishing. :)

   The blog I need help with is fracturedfractals.wordpress.com.

   Yes, right in the announcement there's a note:

   If you’d prefer the classic experience, you can turn Instant Post Feedback off from your Dashboard, at Settings, Users, Personal Settings.

   I don´t get it...

   Obviously a lot of people like the new sidebar and since it is easy to turn it off, I won´t complain about it being there.

   However, one of the arguments used is that it would be ever so great to be able to do - for example - a typo check right after posting because typo´s are easier to spot on a published page than in the editor...

   What is wrong with saving a draft version and then click preview? Works even better, because no-one but the publisher gets to see that preview, so there is no chance that fast followers spot the mistake.

   It´s all a matter of having your work-flow in order.

   Just my two cents.

   Happy new year :-)

   It doesn't DO typo checks, though. I'm not getting your point.
