WordPress upgrade
Closed Published by scotth September 8th, 2009 in Computers, Life, Lindy Hop, SecurityWell Twitter was all abuzz about a WordPress worm and sure enough a worm had been circulating attacking old versions of wordpress. Well obviously I pretty much never post on this blog these days. And wordpress is notorious for security issues. This is partly due to the popularity of the product, partly due to problems with php itself, and probably partly due to some flaws in WordPress’s on code. But, to their credit, they update quickly and the word doess get out. And, to their credit, upgrading was really simple despite the many customizations I have done. So kudos to the wordpress team. What I didn’t want was for this thing to get hacked and have spam links spread all through it and have it ruin my google search ranking. So there it is.
On a more fun note, we’ve been spending the past year trying to learn to lindy hop. Maybe someday we’ll get as good as this:
