What’s this? 6 months after spitting the rattle, is he starting to use the wp.com again?
Well, maybe. For now I am just playing with the wp.com version of the upgrade to 2.5.
Doesn’t seem much different to the self-hosted version at the moment. And yes, I really like the self hosted version.
It’s nice that zemanta (firefox plugin) works with wp.com too. Although it seems to be broke right now as all I get is “Ooops, something went wrong!”
Now, how about a picture upload.
One that I grabbed very quickly from my desktop:
or at least, there would be if I could find the image uploader… Found it! Not exactly obvious though is it! I think I would get used to it eventually, but it could really do with being more obvious.
I know that people have been complaining about the broken uploader. And no spell checker. And… and… and…
Well, that wasn’t too bad!
Now, all you dissenters:
Quit yer mankin’. It’s a major fecking upgrade. Things is gonna be broke. They’ve invested all this time in it and it ain’t goin’ back. Get used to it.
Oh, and how much do most people pay for this service? I pay nothing. You? Do you even have a right to moan? NO!
EDIT: The ONLY thing I think wp.com needs now is subscribe to comments. It has everything else and I refuse to use feedburner or and RSS reader for comments on every blog that I visit. Something like WLTC has it and I get loads of emails from one comment. Imagine if I picked up the RSS feed for comments on ICHC or that “white people like” blog. I would be sifting through too much shit just to see the reply to my one comment I would waste even more time than I already do…
