Upgrading WordPress with the iPhone
I’ve been using InstantUpgrade for over a year now to keep my blog on the latest version of WordPress without fail. Every upgrade has been smooth and successful and has gone off without a hitch. This evening I got really brave and used my iPhone to upgrade to WordPress 2.7, again everything went smooth. The latest version, 1.0-beta2, lets you control whether the files are fetched via FTP or HTTP. I happen to still be on version 0.2, but things have been working so smoothly from version to version of WordPress, I have no plans to upgrade.

Suffering from an internal struggle, I love to be on the latest and greatest WordPress, but I’m also extremely lazy and don’t enjoy the pain of upgrading. The WordPress upgrade process is annoying at best. If you follow all the rules and, back up your database, backup your old files, disable all your plug-ins, delete

GreatWebGuy.com is now running on Lighttpd or “Lighty” 1.5 and WordPress 2.2. The biggest hurdle we had to overcome running our blog with the Lighty http server was the rewrite rules for our custom Permalink structure – /%category%/%postname%/ – none of the rewrite rules posted on the web seemed to work correctly.

You may have noticed that I’m short on entries this past week. New to blogging and easily distracted by shiny things, wordpress plug-ins are my Kryptonite.
