I haven't used freebsd-update before.
I am on 8.0 should I upgrade to 8.1 or directly to 8.2?

what's the general consensus.
My system is bog-standard, I don't mess about with it.

The link above has the details, but with a generic kernel you can upgrade directly with:

# freebsd-update upgrade -r 8.2-RELEASE
# freebsd-update install

With a custom kernel it's slightly more work.
