Upgraded to the latest beta of WordPress. Not as many problems as last time, although the entire blog was invisible at first. Believe it or not, I had to enable smiley conversion to fix it!

Anyway, URL handling is slightly different. Namely, there are extra slashes in the “search-friendly” URLs. I like it better without them, but in general it seems most blogs are using the other convention. Ironic that the format for permalinks keeps changing.
