A few updates to the site
First of all, wordpress has been updated to 2.6 as it just came out today.
Right after updating a crap load of updates were available for the plugins I installed. So thanks to the auto update thing, the update process went smoothly. I also decided to re-install a subscribe plugin, the same one I used before, just didn’t bother with it much in the past. I went through some extensive editing to the email template to make it match this site, and it turned out quite well, not perfect, quite well. lol
I read through the new features of wordpress 2.6, and I am pretty impressed of the new stuff it has. I didn’t know WordPress has a built in Gallery until last version. Though I think I’ll stick with NexGen gallery since it’s already installed. I also noticed that wordpress has built in avatar support, The Turbo setting, which im currently not using right now but I might. They finally decided to add Theme preview as a function. Now I don’t have to activate the theme to see how it would look on my blog! 
Post revision is also a neat little feature.
There’s also this Press This feature that looks like it’s pretty cool. Gonna have to try that out someone. It’s suppose to be able to make a blog on the page you are currently viewing. lol
On other news, I finally got my hands on an iPhone 3g!! 16GB Black. I shall do some kind of mini review on it sometime next week after I play with it a bit. So far first impressions of the phone is quite good. The headphones that are included acts as both a media headphone and handsfree headset, tho wired, not wireless. OH well.

- @alanhsu disappointed... i thought you were an IT guy....
I haven’t explored all the features yet either, but at least your plugin auto-updates went more smoothly than mine.
I didn’t know about the built-in gallery either, but I’m sticking with nextgen too.
As for the iPhone…meh.
Be sure to post pics and stuff though.
Whoa that was weird. Tried submitted that first comment and got an error to “slow down” because I was posting too fast, but I only tried submitting it once.
Ok twice in a row, this time the error was that I already posted that…something to look at, because I’m only clicking the submit button once.
/me wonders what the error will be this time
the latest version of ajaxed wordpress is causing problems. Therefore it is disabled and I have fallen back to the default comment system for the time being, at least until I find a better working one. :p
