I just upgraded my blog to wordpress 2 last night. Here are my initial thoughts. The installation was simple. I backed up all data and content. I then turned off all my plugins and uploaded the new files. And then it was the moment of truth - refresh the page and see if it works or not. Well, it did. Then I went through and turned my plugins on, one at a time. That also worked, though some functionality had changed and altered the way some of these worked. I had to upgrade a few of them, but that’s not bad. Let me move on to the features.

The wysiwyg editor is really cool. Although it takes a little while to get the hang of it. I used to have a custom quick tag for images that would handle all the alignment and title features. I was used to doing it that way. But once you get used to the image handling and all that - you won’t want to go back. They have done a really good job on this part. Collapsing sidebars are pretty cool too. But the main features are under the hood. From what I hear, the most exciting part about Wordpress 2 is yet to come. Developers are goint to be able to make some serious plugins - I can’t wait! Hats off to the development team at Wordpress - your product is a work of art.

    I’ve heard so many good things about the upgrade, but I’m still cautious, the installation was such confusion for me - and some people are reporting plugin incompatability
