Beer and Blog Portland

In honor of the Release of WordPress 2.7 the organizers of WordcampPDX are hosting an upgrade/switchover party at CubeSpace this Friday!

In case you haven’t heard about the new WordPress 2.7, I can assure you updates are plentiful. Personally, I’m diggin’ the ability to upload media to the Media Library without having to create a post and the drop-down menus on the left in the admin panel. The new interface is not only purdy, it’s functional, too.

Not using WordPress? They’ll help you migrate. WordPress users who want assistance upgrading to the new hotness? They’ll hold your hand and tell you to remember to breathe.

Keep in mind that Beer and Blog will start at 5:30pm, a little later that usual, to coincide with the start of the WordPress 2.7 release party. And while there’s bound to be a couple of us at our regular haunt at the Green Dragon waiting until it’s time to party at CubeSpace, the extra time will give you extra time to grab some brews. It’s BYOB, baby!

Join your Beer and Blog friends and celebrate the bells-and-whistles of the new WordPress 2.7. RSVP on upcoming!
