One other point on the updates. Sometimes when you update wp some of your plug ins will no longer work until updated.

I don't do much with Wordpress myself, usually only for quick jobs for clients, but I treat my installations the same way.

Sometimes a plugin breaks when WP is updated, and there is no update for the plugin... permanent breakage sucks!

I have always done the manual updates. I'm just a hands on kinda girl I guess.
