Just did yet another painless upgrade to WordPress, which is the software that powers this web site. #
It is now running version 2.5 quite happily. What made this upgrade different was the fact that I did it from my laptop running Ubuntu 7.10. #
Every other upgrade I’ve done from a Windows platform, using the FTP tool I’ve been familiar with, FileZilla. #
The default install of Ubuntu hasn’t installed FileZilla, so it was a quick click to System | Administration | Synaptic Package Manager | Search | “Filezilla” | Mark for install | approve the dependancies | Apply. #
In under a minute, FileZilla was installed and my favorite FTP tool was running just like it does on my Windows laptop. Yay! I just love how easy it is to install most things with Ubuntu. #
