WordPress Upgraded!

I’ve been running a blog or two since 1996. Early on it was all manual. Then, I came across MoveableType and considered myself blessed. Then I started seeing more and more sites move to WordPress. Should I take the leap?

I mean, I’m semi-savvy but by no means a programmer so where do I turn if things go horribly wrong? And they have, believe me! So every time I consider an upgrade, inevitably I’ll put it off for a month or two because I don’t want to be stuck in database permissions hell.

Thus, today finds me home sick with nothing better to do than upgrade WordPress to version 2.1.3. It went off without a hitch. Big thumbs up to the good folks at WordPress, without whom I’d have long since pulled out what’s left of my hair.
