And the Winner is…
At the outset, I would like to apologise to all concerned for the delay in announcing the result for the 4,000 Etrecard credits giveaway contest. I was having a difficult time trying to decide a way to choose the winner.
Eventually, I decided to take the traditional route, and printed the name of all the entries on pieces of paper and the result looked something like this :
Then, I got one of my friends to pick one of the slips, and we had our winner.
Congratulations Brenda! Your 4,000 Entrecard credits will be in your account soon.
It was fun having a contest on the Blog, and, I think, I am going to be holding some more contests in the future. I would like to thank everyone for participating this time and I hope that the future contests are as successful as this one was.
Not Another Upgrade!!!
Wordpress is a great thing. It is perhaps one of the best things to have happened in the cyberspace. It has enabled many people - like me - who were not very familiar with html and other web site building languages, to set up, run and maintain good looking sites.
Going by the number of upgrades that have been made to Wordpress, the people behind Wordpress seem to be working quite hard. Usually, by the time I have one version of Wordpress set up and running, they release a new one. Not being very tech -savy, I ususally stick to one version of Wordpress (or any software for that matter), till it becomes absolutely necessary to upgrade.
As of now, I am using Wordpress 2.3.1 and even though everytime I log in, my dashboard tells me that my “WordPress 2.3.1 is out of date,” I still have not felt the need to upgrade. It is pertinent, I think, to mention here that the last time I tried to upgrade Wordpress, I did something wrong and was forced to resort to a fresh install.
It appears that Wordpress is now almost ready with Wordpress 2.5, and from the sneek peek provided by the Wordpress team it seems that upgrading to 2.5 will not only be necessary, but will also make using Wordpress a better experience. So, I am waiting for the new version of Wordpress with great eagerness, and a little anxiety.
What do you feel about Wordpress upgrades?
