Great new look to WordPress.com backend

So that's what happens when you don't blog for three weeks running and log in to WordPress.com and get greeted with a new backend. It's great, I like it, especially the QuickPress form. The only bad part of the QuickPress form is that it lacks my Categories. A Tags field is present, but to categorize, I have to publish the post and then go back and re-edit it. That sucks and is a time waster for sure.
