New Wordpress

Just upgraded to WP 2.5. I got some errors the first time around when I tried deleting wp-admin and wp-includes and then copying in the new versions — something about the wrong ABSPATH.

Instead, I just backed up my wp-config.php file and wp-content directory, deleted the old wp install, deployed WP 2.5, and then re-copied the wp-config.php and wp-content directories. Now everything is humming along successfully.  The new interface is pretty slick. Plus, I need to check out these caching options since I know this Web site will be super popular one day.

By the way, in reading about the new verison of WordPress, I came across a new ambition. Like the founding developer of WordPress, I want to become the number one Google hit for my first name as well.
