Works perfectly. It doesn't do the back-up part but do you need that? You should have back-ups running automatically already. InstantUpgrade was out months before the Techie Buzz plugin.

It absolutely makes no sense to upgrade 'automatically' to a software that is just released. For bloggers who have been developing software know the value testing. It pays. The ease of upgrade is really one thing that would make this plugin popular. But I would advice not to upgrade automatically to any thing thats just made public. Just give it a test first , see how things are going and then upgrade. Just to remind that wordpress has its shares of problems. Once somebody was able to gain access to their server, modified the download file and put in some garbage code. Now think what would have happend if everybody with their eyes close had this plugin and upgraded automatically. That essentially would have given that hacker an easy access to every one who had this plugin. Obviously this plugin was not there then , but it is now. So be sure of what you are doing before installing this plugin. All the best. Ah - When I see john chow calling this plugin for ‘plugin of the year’ I can’t help without smiling.

But I'm not sure I'm going to use it - because I can upgrade WordPress with 1 click through Dreamhost :) Nice plug-in. But I’m not sure I’m going to use it - because I can upgrade WordPress with 1 click through Dreamhost :)
