The WordPress team has release version 2.0.2 of their popular software. This version fixes a few bugs and some security fixes that they were not that specific on. U have no idea how vulnerable my site was but I figure its better to do a quick update than get h4×043d. 
I am considering updating K2 as well but I think Michael and Chris might be unveiling a major update this week. As always please report any bugs, etc. 
Sorry for the downtime the last couple of days. Apparently, Apache decided it would be fun to use up all available memory and CPU clock cycles until the entire server keeled over.

More on that if it happens, I hope everyone is doing well.

I found this picture first via Binarybonsai that refers back to this post over at this blog. It shows an interesting new feature of Windows Vista that shows you when a program makes your computer startup slower that it should. I think this is a really interesting idea because it could help people find spyware and other nasty stuff. If you would like to read more about Windows Vista you should really check out this really excellent article over at ExtremeTech that has some really good coverage of the new features. go check it out!
