I used to be right there testing beta versions of WordPress. Even on this, my live, production site. I've been out of that habit for a while, but I keep hearing about [Gutenberg](https://wordpress.org/gutenberg/) and how it's going to be the next editor. And it's really different.



Thanks to [Morten](https://mor10.com/) I'm trying it out. His [video on Facebook made it seem easy and simple to learn](https://wordpress.tv/2017/12/10/morten-rand-hendriksen-gutenberg-and-the-wordpress-of-tomorrow/). And it is. The blocks thing will take getting used to, but there is a lot of great flexibility here that I think the (short) learning curve is worth it. This is my first post *published*? using Gutenberg. I have one queued for later, but I wanted to see what a live post looked like first.



If this works my next big question is going to be how remote posting tools like Ulysses work with it. Hmm.
