The Land of Ozz

I chose to upgrade this blog to WordPress 2.5 RC1 because I am sunsetting it anyway. I am combining all of our family blogging in with The Land of Ozz. I found this move to be a little less risky than upgrading a production blog that is fairly up to date.

Here are a couple of points that visitors might find useful when looking at WordPress 2.5

• This was a standard upgrade using a manual FTP upload
• This blog was upgraded directly from WP 2.1 to 2.5
• This blog uses the default Kubrick Theme (no updates were made to \wp-content\themes\default during this upgrade)

This testing being done by:

From left to right: Sherry (aka Mrs. Ozz or Mommy), Josiah, Caden, Hank (aka TheOzz or Daddy) and Riley

I am introducing the family because you will be seeing more of them on The Land of Ozz in the near future. The Land of Ozz will begin some slow changes over the next few weeks. Mrs. Ozz has expressed a desire to begin blogging. We talked and decided that having her join me here on The Land of Ozz is the better solution than creating and maintaining a whole new blog. My posting has been light anyway and the readership has declined as a result. Mrs. Ozz will be blogging on some of the same general topics plus much more. As a result of the “more”, I plan to add sort of a His and Hers blog roll as well as a His and Hers category list. I also hope to offer feed subscriptions by author.

So the “Ozz” in “The Land of Ozz” will begin to take on a new meaning. The blog title moving forward will represent the Ozz family instead of just one Ozz (myself). The blog design will be reflecting some changes too. I more than welcome the feminine touch to the look and feel of this blog. Mrs. Ozz has been reviewing WordPress themes and I expect to make a change to this blog’s design in the next week or two.
