Minecraft 1.3 to merge single and multiplayer
The reason behind the change, according to Mojang, is to accommodate the upcoming modding API, which otherwise would have required modders to create multiple versions of each mod, one for single-player and one for multiplayer. The downside is that single-player games will now require a little more computing power, though Mojang is hoping to smooth things out a bit in 1.4.
Other additions in 1.3 will include emeralds and emerald ore, the ability to buy items from villagers, the ability to write in books, an optional "bonus chest" that helps new players "get started quicker" and more. Minecraft 1.3 is slated to arrive August 1, with a "release candidate" available a week prior.

I don't totally understand this, but nonetheless can't want for the August, 1.3, update.
The buy items from villagers seems awesome for my server, I hope we get to choose what they sell.

Dubble I dont really understand the merging of single player to multiplayer but i cant wait for pistons/villages!
Single Player and Multiplayer both have different coding and so if they are merged together, then it would mean that Mods would be a little easier to update and it would take less time for updates to come out. Both updates for Multiplayer and Singleplayer can be applied easier, loads of other reasons but I can't list them all.
