Dubai Wordpress Meetup with Matt Mullenweg
On January 2nd Friday, there will be a Dubai WordPress meetup at Montgomery Golf Course with Matt Mullenweg, founding developer of WordPress. It is a chance to meet other local users of wordpress. Hmm..that’s exciting. Just yesterday I did my upgrade to Wodpress 2.7.
Everyone is invited in this meetup and since I’m very much now into wordpress, I have confirmed my attendance on Facebook. I’m actually busy that day but since this is chance I don’t wanna missed.
Wordpress finally upgraded
It was March of 2007 when I started this blog. And since then I have never upgraded my wordpress 2.1. Today I finally upgraded to wordpress 2.7. I never thought upgrading wordpress was that easy. It actually took me more time reading how to upgrade than applying it myself. I was hesitant that I might do something wrong and problems will occur but I was wrong. It only took me few minutes upgrading to the latest version of wordpress 2.7.
This is what I did.
1. I did a full backup of my wordpress database. I did a back up on my cpanel. ( The most important before doing something on your website specially if you are not familiar with what you are doing )
2. Download Wordpress 2.7 from Wordpress download.
Blogging Day!
Today is Blogging Day!
There are blogs that I need to update and fix so I decided that today will be a blogging day for me. I have just created another personal blog called Views of Dubai. Most of my post that you will read there are issues and other peoples views of what Dubai is, the good and bad.
I was able to encourage two friends to start blogging and now they have their own, up and running. I’m sure they too can earn from their blogs.
Now what is blog? For those who are haven’t have blogs yet or have not started blogging. Let me tell you what blog is.
