Every time there is a new release of WordPress, Noela will ask me “What’s new”. I bet she must have been puzzled many times since she upgrades and doesn’t find any changes on the Dashboard.
I asked myself the same question today when I upgraded from wordpress 2.8 to Wordpress 2.8.2. You may be asking me why I never upgraded to 2.8.1 when it was available. Well, I did so for Elvizy’s World and found many bugs that interfered with some plugins and the visual editor. I was scared messing up this blog in a similar manner, so i had to wait for the next stable release.
It should be noted that most new releases of wordpress basically introduce more bug fixes than new features. That’s why most often, when you upgrade, you seem not to find anything new. I bet you there are tens of new things, which only the techy guys will understand.
Personally, I advise you to always upgrade. Thank God automatic upgrade has been added to the wordpress core so ever Tom, Dick and Harry can now update without any fears.
