WordPress 2.1 Ella

Very quick “10 min” upgrade to the latest and greatest version of wordpress went smoother than a babies arse.

Ahh the memories

Found an old copy of this site from over 3 years ago with it's big blocky Flash menu, back when I tried hosting the site from a server in my flat. Still it taught me how to break an IIS server and then give up and learn how to set up an apache server.
