No Mod Required

My machine is freshly returned from HP, working, and filled with all sorts of upgraded goodness (Office 2007, CS3, etc.) so I'm in the middle of a computer geek marathon. I'm cleaning up and reorganizing my music, photos and my inbox and starting on a few enhancements to the site that I've wanted to get to for a few months now. As always, when there's anything interesting technically, I'll be writing up the results here

1st on the agenda?

Upgrading wordpress.

Oh snap!
edited to add: I just noticed that WP has dropped the Technorati incoming links report
in favor of Google Blog Search. Why did I not hear of this before? Am I the only one that cares?
