Upgrading WordPress to 2.8.5 was unbelievably fast. I use the WordPress Automatic Upgrade plugin and after clicking the “automatic update” link the site was upgraded in the time it took to reload the page. It seems too good to be true.
WordPress is a great system from my point of view – I’ve always found it reasonably easy to theme, it has a beautiful user interface, and does just what I need it to do which is allow me to talk shite.
