happy birthday, movable type! i’m probably a little more excited than i ought to be, but then again, MT is the reason this blog here exists. i’d been eyeing it for a couple months, and finally decided to check it out, with the idea of converting surreally.
this was just a test.
so i’ll use that as my excuse why i’m having to restrain myself from bouncing around the office about the new version. heh – so much for getting any work done today~~
It’s so hard to be at work when there’s upgradin’ to be done.
I am not computer literate.
But I rejoice with you and dance around my room about the Movable Type Issues you have resolved. I know somehow this helps me blog better.
I owe it all to you, kd!!!
Toasting you with a glass of water,
Donna
YES! Happy birthday Moveable Type. Ben and Mena’s little baby has improved self-publishing immensely. Blogger was great and got a lot of people online, but MT is the logical next step. Can’t wait to see what is next.
oh man, i don’t even have my (recently changed) FTP password with me at work! damn! i really need to upgrade something. i need it NOW man!
Haha, I’d say “Upgrade me!” but 2.0 is completely satisfactory. And I fear change.
I [heart] Ben and Mena and MT though.
I can’t remember my ftp password or I’d let you upgrade me. (That sounds a bit dirty. It also sounds fun though. heh) I think I remember eric’s though so if you’re really desperate to upgrade someone let me know.
Mind in gutter, must retrieve it before someone steps on it.
Do I want to upgrade? Should I upgrade? Now I’m stressed out about whether I need to upgrade. If I’m creating a new blog (we need to talk about that, btw, I promise not to freak out like last time. This is not a new installation, it’s just a second blog. heh) should I upgrade first? I could go to MT and read about this upgrade thing but I’m rapidly developing a case of the stupids that may, in fact, be permament.
you should upgrade. or, i mean, i should upgrade you. after my nap.
mmmmm… geeeeeeky!
it’s a GOOD thing.
Well…it’s not that much different. I’m not running MySQL either so I didn’t even need to run any upgrade scripts.
MT 2.1/2.2 had MySQL and some cosmetic stuff. But, 2.5 has some neat tricks that really elvates the program, IMO (though you will have to read the manual). I upgraded last night. It was effortless.
Not only does it slice and dice. I hear that you can set it up to do auto pings when you update. So… you can ping wander-lust when you update (shameless plug)…
Back to lurking.
Oooh! Upgrades! New stuff! kd, my goddess!!
Ok, I was thinking I didn’t need to upgrade but then Rick said “auto pings.” That sounds unbelievably cool. I shall wait for kd to post more happy thoughts about it first…
