I finally took the plunge and upgraded this blog to WP 2.5.1
Since my previous version wasn’t very old, either, this was a pretty smooth transition. All the plugins were still working although some had newer version. This brings me to one of the best features of this version – you can update plugins automatically from inside the control panel by just clicking one link. Oh and you also need to add your ftp info so it can unzip and add the new files. Is that cool or what!?
However, if you upgrade from an older version and I mean a much older version then there might be some changes to be made. For example some plugins might be outdated especially tag related plugins as WP 2.5.1 has its own inbuilt tags option now and a pretty good one at that. For those of you who were using the wp links tag, will need to shift to wp bookmarks.
But mainly it is just little tweaks and so worth the effort. WP 2.5.1 offers a great new interface and some unique and intuitive new features. I’ll say it is a major improvement and one you will notice in an instant.

How would you like to be able to download hundreds of free ebooks, software and other useful tools? To top that off, how would you like to build your list to glorious new heights all at the same time?
If you have never participated in a giveaway, let me tell you this is one of the best ways to increase your subscriber base. And some of the products you get to download are fabulous – some even come with PLR and MRR rights so you can do whatever you want with them.
The only catch here is that in order to build your list you have to offer some kind of a gift to entice them to join. Once they have subscribed to your list, they will receive your free gift. True some people may just join for the gift and unsub asap. But by experience I would say most of them stay. After that it is up to the quality of your content to keep them on the list.
So here are 3 of the JV Giveaways I am currently participating in. Go add your gifts here asap and start building your list. Some of these sites are going to be getting massive traffic soon so you don’t want to miss out on that.

Add This: Social Bookmarks allow your visitors to easily submit your posts to social bookmarking sites. Many plugins are available for this purpose including Social Bookmarks, Gregarious and Sociable. I just recently found Add This and although it adds a link to their site, it is less intrusive and less cluttered than the others. You can see the result at the end of this post.
