Five Reasons Why Newbie Shouldn’t Cheat With Adsense

Eah, the new wordpress version, WordPress 2.1 has come just about a week after the release of version 2.0.7. Codenamed Ella, the name comes from the famous jazz vocalist, Ella Fitzgerald. Ive upgraded one of my wordpress blogs to the new version but having Ajax function problem here and there so I decided to suspend the upgrade for Tech-Scope.com. It does work on other peoples blog so your result may be vary from what Ive got. Here are the highlights of the new features that surely going to make you chill if youre the blogging geek in the house.
