Yes, I know. Another fixit post. Why do I beat myself up like this?
If I had known that self hosting was going to be such a chore, I would have gone to WordPress.com and had them do it for me, however, I would have to pay them to customize the blog, and pay my hosting company. This is less expensive.
Anyway, WordPress 2.9 does impart some convenience features, like dropdown menus for category listings and better widget support. A couple of the plugins I liked like Twitter Tools haven’t make the transition yet, but they will, I’m sure. In any event, enjoy.
