We're Back
After a 35 minute downtime of upgrading Wordpress, which seriously guys, upgrading is a pain in the ass, we’re back. And by we, I mean me.
Anyways, went from 2.1.3 to 2.3.2. It had been a while. Why? Because as I said, upgrading is a horrible experience.
Here’s my .bash_history for the upgrade session.
Oddly exactly 100 lines.
You might notice I made the directory ja.meswilson.com. That’s becuase I bought the domain meswilson.com, mainly so I could have the domain j(with one of those at signs that look like a’s here)meswilson.com, because that’s awesome.
I haven’t decided if I’ll switch this to that domain (I do kinda like nothingoutoftheordinary.com), so I guess we’ll see. If I do switch, most people probably won’t notice except it might take an extra few hundred milliseconds for the redirect.
And dear Wordpress, make upgrading easier. You advertise a really quick install, it’s just the upgrading that kills ya. If you don’t do it, or someone hasn’t already, I’m going have to, and I don’t feel like doing anything.

Have to agree, upgrading ye olde Wordpress is a right royal pain in the rear..Here’s to voting for an easier upgrade mechanism..If only upgrading was as easy as adding plugins..then we’d be laughin.
