Today’s feature screencast covers the node sculpting functionality of the Engraver’s Toolbox (which is a part of the calligraphy tool.) To use it, choose the Calligraphy tool, and hold down ALT or ALT+Shift and then drag. This will thin or thicken your path.
For a better written explaination of this new feature check out the release notes in the inkscape wiki

Oh my GAWD!
Make it twirl, zig-zag and puff out like clouds and I’ll never use Illustrator again!
I’ve been following Planet Inkscape for a while and your posts are just awe-inspiring work.
Thank you,
David

Hey! That is one cool feature!
Oh, BTW where is that “paint bucket” button you’ve got there? Is that a plugin or something? Where can I get it?
Thanks,
