Leading Leaders to Leadership

Last sun, shopping at Jusco Klang with my wife for few hours. While waiting for dinner time, we both went into Popular book shop look around as my wife loves to hang around stationery area. Its common that what jobs that you do, you will likes to see those things…right?

I thought of getting the “Dato Lim Goh Tong” success story books but can’t find it and i walk into the management section and just read through some of the book and saw this “Leading Leaders to Leadership” by John Fuhrman. Not bad they have 1 of the book un-warp so you can have a look on the content. I’m lack in management nor leading a team, so i get hook on this book and end up getting it.

WordPress 2.3.1 - Updated

WordPress 2.3.1 is now available. 2.3.1 is a bug-fix and security release for the 2.3 series.

2.3.1 fixes over twenty bugs. Some of the notable fixes are:

• Tagging support for Windows Live Writer
• Fixes for a login bug that affected those with a Blog Address different than
  their WordPress Address
• Faster taxonomy database queries, especially tag intersection queries
• Link importer fixes

Unfortunately, some security issues were found in 2.3. Janek Vind found an XSS problem that can be exploited if your php setup has register_globals enabled. For this reason, upgrading to 2.3.1 is advised.

Just updated my blog from previous version 2.2.3 to this version, thanks to Siew for the updates. I’m using the Maintenance Mode display on my blog when I’m doing the upgrading and it is a very good plug-in to have.
