Not even close 

4. 1. Empty Trash Automagically
In your wp-config.php:
define('EMPTY_TRASH_DAYS', 1 );

5. 2. Change Your Autosave Interval
In your wp-config.php:
define('AUTOSAVE_INTERVAL‘, 160);

6. 3. Edit Images
After uploading an Image you can
actually edit the image you uploaded.
Really.

7. 4. Maintenance.php
Create your own maintenance.php
You decide what the maintenance
page looks like.

8. 5. oEmbed
oEmbed will help you to automagically embed
content from

Yes, it’s that simple.

9. 6. Media Settings
Media settings are not static.
• Change the thumbnail, medium and large
settings
• Add the maximum width to your Media
Settings options page as well. Just do it.

10. 7. Use Child Theme
When customizing an existing
WordPress Theme, you have no other
choice than to use a child theme.
Really. Learn more on the Codex.

11. 8. Use the fullscreen mode
WordPress 3.2 introduced the full screen
edit screen.
Write your content distraction free.
Try it.

On top of every single screen you use.
You have options.
Fiddle around with it. Try them.
