Custom taxonomies is a great tool, you can create by yourself more ways to categorized posts or custom posts and in that way use wordpress as much better and advanced CMS.
suprisingley there isn’t yet a function to use if you want to check if a post is attached to a custom taxonomy (unless you check it with a single term of that given taxonomy – like in this example – http://wordpress.org/support/topic/custom-taxonomies-conditional-tags?replies=13#post-1110167)
let’s say you created a custom taxonomy called “video”, and you want to display different border to the featured image in the LOOP or any other icon near this post to show that it is a video.
you can use this function which returns the list of objects of a given taxonomy:
$video_terms = wp_get_object_terms($post->ID, ‘video’);
if(!empty($video_terms)){
if(!is_wp_error( $video_terms )){
//show your icon or any other sign of this taxonomy
}
}

hello everyone, writing these words i am using the new wordpress version, 3.3 “sonny”.
many new features are available, fancy new look for the admin, excellent new media uploader with drag and drop options, more compatibility with iPad, pointer tips to introduce new features and many more…
For Users
Experienced users will appreciate the new drag-and-drop uploader, hover menus for the navigation, the new toolbar, improved co-editing support, and the new Tumblr importer. We’ve also been thinking a ton about what the WordPress experience is like for people completely new to the software. Version 3.3 has significant improvements there with pointer tips for new features included in each update, a friendly welcome message for first-time users, and revamped help tabs throughout the interface. Finally we’ve improved the dashboard experience on the iPad and other tablets with better touch support.
For Developers
here’s a list of all the changes: http://codex.wordpress.org/Version_3.3
There is a ton of candy for developers as well. I’d recommend starting your exploration with the new editor API, new jQuery version, better ways to hook into the help screens, more performant post-slug-only permalinks, and of course the entire list of improvements on the Codex and in Trac.
