  How can I tell if my blog (created 9/11) is using a version of WordPress 3? Are the upgrades automatic?
  Although the blog was created in Sept., I am just now learning about WordPress.

  Thanks,
  Lori

  If you are referring to the free hosted WordPress.com blog linked to your username then know that all WordPress upgrades here are done by Staff. WordPress.com is running the most recent version of WordPress and in fact we WordPress.com bloggers experience new versions 1 month prior to their release to WordPress.org bloggers.

  If you are talking about http://anacortesumc.wordpress.com/ you are not using WP 3. You are using WordPress.com, which is different and separate from WordPress.ORG, which is the kind of WP that numbers apply to.
