Wordpress 2.3
I’ve just finished my wordpress 2.3 upgrade. 
Yipeeee!
I was nervous to try it at first since I was really worried that I might break something and lose all my blog entries. I read the upgrade instructions first, around 3-5 times to make sure I would do it right. Hahaha.
So what I did was back-up my tables like stated in the directions by accessing my PhpMyAdmin and got both the zip and non-zip file of my backup. I then activated the maintenance mode, so people who accidentaly stumble into my blog won’t find it weird why database errors were showing up, and then I deactivated all my plugins.
-_- Yeah stupid me, I forgot not to deactivate the maintenance mode plugin, so anyone who might have passed by did see the database errors that were showing up while the transfer of the new wordpress files were being done. 
After pounding my head on that minor stupidity, I tried not to panic by making myself some iced tea and find anything I can eat on the fridge. There was nothing interesting on the fridge though, so I just consoled myself with the iced tea and fed “MingMing” our male cat since he was whining.
After 10 minutes or so I went back to my computer to check on the transfer. I am on dial-up so it is quite slow. Seeing that the transfer was finished, I headed to the upgrade page and then I was done. I crossed my fingers when I checked my blog on the browser for the first time after the upgrade and I’m quite happy that I didn’t break anything. So now I have the 2.3 version installed, and the tags running. Its actually one of the reasons why I wanted to upgrade. At least now my related posts plugin works. 
I might even try the configurable tag cloud later and see if its good to add on my blog or not. I also found out while reactivating my plugins that the version checker works. I have two installed plugins that notified me of its new version availability so I upgraded them immediately.
While writing this post, I am poking around the visual editor and I’m quite ecstatic because the “justified” paragraph format is there. I’m obsessed with the justified format in my papers and other documents so I’m very happy. (Note: I’m quite easy to please. Haha.)
