Upgraded To WordPress 2.5!
Well I finally upgraded my blog from the previous v2.1.3 to the latest v2.5 after procrastinating for so long. Was definitely a daunting experience, but I’m glad I went through it nonetheless.
For users like me, who are hosting your blog on GoDaddy, and are wondering if you can upgrade the way regular users upgrade, the answer is YES! 
I first installed WordPress about a year ago through Go Daddy Hosting Connection, and to upgrade, you don’t have to go through the same site again.
Follow the simple instructions here, which I did, and you should be good to go! 
At the moment though, several of my plugins are either acting weird, or have failed totally (especially the wp-table plugin, which caused a fatal error. 
). Guess I’ll just have to make do with it for the moment.
At least my blog is reborn! haha..
Congrats! I just set my site up recently and added a little more security. It was pretty straight forward, and the 5 minute install was great
I didn’t realize that WordPress was such a hot spot for script kiddies trying to add their spam, but I guess anything that’s popular will be a target.
Thanks!
I guess Akismet alone does a pretty good job. It protected me from a lot of spams already.
