The latest version of Wordpress came out a couple weeks ago but I was stalling on upgrading due to a warning my hosting company posted. After doing two different types of backups, one through the hosting service and one through a shell script Rob wrote, I decided to take the plunge and do the Wordpress upgrade. Two painless seconds later, I was good to go.

The whole layout felt different and amazingly better. Easier to navigate, so far everything just worked, etc. I was so psyched with the fresh version, I figured I might as well look into all the side ideas that I had been meaning to get around to, i.e. google analytics, google webmasters and some SEO. (Thanks Jansen and Rob for your help)

I am really starting to enjoy this blogging / living hooked to my computer lifestyle. =)
