I finally upgraded this blog to the latest Wordpress version and I can’t believe how easy it was. LOL.
I had put this on hold for the longest time, thinking that it was going to be quite a hassle just like my other blogs (it was a nightmare when I upgraded them from WP 2.5 to WP 2.7). In actual fact, all it took was a couple of clicks and it’s done!
If you are still procrastinating like me, don’t worry about upgrading as long as you have at least WP 2.8 installed. I did it in a breeze and am glad that I have finally got rid of the yellow irritating reminder. Haha.
This is what you would probably see:
Step 1: Click the yellow reminder at the top of your dashboard.
Step 2: Click Upgrade Automatically. You can backup your database and files first beforehand as a good practice. But I was too lazy to do so. 
Step 3: In just a few seconds, it is done and you can now update your plugins too.
How much time did that take me? ONE minute.
Yes, unbelievable huh? I love WP 2.8!
