WordPress 1.5

I knew I should have read Michael’s post when it appeared in my aggregator this morning. WordPress 1.5 “Strayhorn” has been officially released today (although the official announcement is still lacking). I’ve just done a quick backup and upgrade and all but one thing appears to be working – the Dashboard. That’s probably an issue with my site, so I’ll be working on that before I do any other posts.

For those currently running WP, I strongly urge you to upgrade as soon as you can. The new features are well worth it, which is why I’ve been running the nightlies as long as I have. For those running a different system (or not running one period) now’s the time to seriously look at a switch.

UPDATE: Yes, of course that was a problem with my site. I fixed the index.php and now everything should be fine. That means that I can finally start working on my own site layout (as if that’s what was really holding me up).

Here comes the sun

Do-do-do-do… or something like that.

Absolutely beautiful out. Just thought I’d mention that. Lisa left me a voice mail confirming the feeling – just in case I thought I was the only one. What makes a fantastic day like this even better is when you hop in the car, and just the right song comes on. Today it was The Killers’ “All These Things That I’ve Done.” Not one I’d typically think of, but it really captured the moment.
