    I would like to display the first post differently. http://en.blog.wordpress.com/ does this on the homepage. That first post entitled “DNS Editing Deployed by Andy Skelton” is different and has an additional class called “first”.

    How do I do this on my WordPress installation? Thanks for any ideas!

    Something like:

    <?php $c = 0;?>
<?php if (have_posts()) : while (have_posts()) : the_post(); $c++;?>
<?php if($c ==1) $class = 'first';
else $class='';
?>
<div <?php post_class($class) ?> id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?>">

    in your theme’s index.php template file should work.
