Just took a few minutes to upgrade this WordPress instance to the latest development version. The new admin interface is too cool that I can’t wait to start using it.
WP 1.6 when it comes out can only be much better than what I see in the current development branch.
I hate those days when I have use the Windows Recovery Console. Even after using Ghost and other backup solutions, one user or the other, forces me to pursue this painful excercise. So, here I am, waiting for more than 95 mins for CHKDSK to complete and this lazy computer is still at 24%.

The last few days, I am playing with Gentoo Linux. I have read loads of reviews that talked highly about this distro. But even then I have to say that I am very much impressed by Gentoo’s speed and versatility.
Looking at the last few years, I can see that I am regularly changing my Desktop Linux distro every two months. First it was Fedora, then Debian (which followed a series of Debian based distros.. Kanotix, Ubuntu) , SuSE and now Gentoo. No matter which distro I start with, after a few weeks the Operating environment will deviate very much from the standard out-of-box installation. At least with Gentoo, I think I have an option to run the official packages.
