Upgraded to WordPress 2.9

Looks fricking awesome in my humble opinion!

Checked in here after not looking for a while, and realised you are on WordPress now.
What other plugins are you using apart from intensedebate?

Yeah in my new job we use WordPress for about 85% of the sites we build. I love it!
As for plugins – a whole heap.
* Google XML Sitemaps
* All-in-one SEO Pack
* WordPress Mobile Pack
* ShareThis (obviously!)
* Twitter Tools (http://www.twitter.com/geekmythologies)
* Nextgen Gallery
* Wordbook (auto post WordPress posts to the authors' Facebook)
* PollDaddy polls (also from Automattic and I don't really use it much)
Thanks

Wicked. I'm also a lazy geek, so sort our either Twitter tools or Feedburner and I'll be there with bells on! Lemme know if you need any help with the site config too… I'm something of a semi-pro
