Embed Everything
Now you can embed your posts on other WordPress sites. Simply drop a post URL into the editor and see an instant embed preview, complete with the title, excerpt, and featured image if you’ve set one. We’ll even include your site icon and links for comments and sharing.
In addition to post embeds, WordPress 4.4 also adds support for five new oEmbed providers: Cloudup, Reddit Comments, ReverbNation, Speaker Deck, and VideoPress.

REST API infrastructure
Infrastructure for the REST API has been integrated into core, marking a new era in developing with WordPress. The REST API gives developers an easy way to build and extend RESTful APIs on top of WordPress.
All these additions and so many more with a sneak peak at the 2016 Theme. Looks like this year is already off to an exciting start to the year
Thanks for sharing this Sandra. This could make sharing information much easier. By simply adding a blog URL you can share someone else’s information/blog post. Cool!!
