Yeah, I know the last post on this blog was in August of 2008, which was nearly a year ago. I got bored today so decided to update this blog for all you loyal subscribers out there, all eight of you (you know who you are).
This wasn’t the only blog that I left dormant. My other (much more popular) blog, Theme Lab, was also void of any updates for several months. I recently revived it and picked up where I left off. I think I’m pretty lucky to have amassed such a loyal group of subscribers.
So anyway, here’s what I’ve done today to the blog here at Leland.info:
- Upgraded to WordPress 2.7.1
- Upgraded a number of plugins (pretty easy nowadays)
- Changed the theme from Monochromatic to this
- Added a nice widgetized footer
That’s about it. I may update this blog in the future, I may not. I don’t really know as I don’t keep track of it much.
It seems like just yesterday I upgraded to 2.5.1 (even though it was over a month ago). There’s not really much difference. A few things I noticed right after upgrading:
- Word count on the write menu
- “Bubble” for outdated plugins
It was a relatively painless upgrade for this blog, especially since I don’t have that many plugins that I’d have to keep up with too.
Like the post title says, I just upgraded to Firefox 3. There were a few problems accessing the site as this was the first day it came out. I managed to find a working download link though. Just a few first impressions:
- It’s faster and uses less RAM
- The graphics are nicer
- A few addons (Firebug) don’t work
Overall, I’m glad I made the upgrade. It’s definitely nice to have a faster browser, and most of the addons have new compatible versions to go along with the new Firefox. Hopefully the remaining addons will have updates soon enough.
I know, it’s a little late – but I’ve just upgraded this blog to run the latest version of WordPress, 2.5.1. To the 2 or so people who actually read this blog, you probably won’t notice much of a difference.
