Upgraded To Wordpress 2.3

September 26, 2007

I’m loving the fact that major Wordpress releases will be more frequent from now on. Upgrading to Wordpress 2.3 was a breeze, and I did it in 2 minutes flat with the Wordpress Automatic Upgrade Plugin. I’ve had a go through the interface, and like most of what I see. The dashboard has been updated, although not quite to my taste.

Specifically, the incoming links are now reported by Google blog search instead of Technorati’s incoming links. I’m not the biggest fan of this feature because Google Blog Search reports every post I make as an incoming link from the same domain. Because of this, I have to dig deeper into finding out what blogs are linking to my posts. I hope the Wordpress team comes out with a fix for this, so that user can choose between Google Blog Search or Technorati incoming links.

I’m also available for assistance in case you have any questions, and I’d love to hear from you if you had any comments regarding Wordpress 2.3!
