iheartubuntuwould anyone happen to know how to transfer a blogger blog to wordpress? im looking for something more open source than blogger, but easy to maintain.17:15
MarkDudesquarespace allows importing *and exporting* even if you just are using their free 2 week trial17:17
pleia2iheartubuntu: wordpress has an import tool17:18
pleia2tools > import17:18
pleia2can import from blogger, livejournal, etc17:19
MarkDudeEven better idea :)17:19
iheartubuntuwow nice17:19
iheartubuntuthx17:19
pleia2most of the big blogging sites have this tool, it's an important feature for a lot of bloggers17:20
pleia2lock-in is not cool :)17:20
pleia2I had to manually import livejournal when I moved to wordpress, it was a little painful since LJ only lets you export month-by-month and I had something like 4 years worth17:21
pleia2but at least they offered it17:21
iheartubuntuis wordpress fairly easy to manipulate?17:21
pleia2in what sense?17:22
MarkDudeMakes sense. I know Squarespace is not fully FOSS friendly, but, I can appreciate they are not a walled garden17:22
jtatumwordpress.com17:25
iheartubuntui wonder if wordpress can import my web layout too or is it just posts and comments17:26
iheartubuntuand if i do import within wordpress, will my blogger blog still be active or empty?17:27
iheartubuntunervous about doing this! :) ive got like 4 year invested in my blog17:27
pleia2it should just export an xml or similar file from blogger, not delete anything (some people use this as a backup method, so it would be very broken of blogger to delete)17:31
pleia2and you'd have to confirm about comments moving17:31
pleia2certainly posts will17:32
pleia2hmm, dagobah19:00
MarkDudeWhat about Yoda?19:04
pleia2the server grantbow sshes from is down19:08
pleia2the host machine is down :\19:09
MarkDudeOh, Hmm19:09
MarkDudeAny Python folks willing to move to Portland for work?20:49
MarkDudemyemma is hiring20:52
pleia2I might have to skip mt view ubuntu hour this time, I think my todo list has become sentient and started adding things to itself21:00
pleia2(I couldn't possibly have agreed to all of this!)21:00
jtatumdoh21:03
jtatumgl with the list.. we'll see you at the next one maybe :)21:03
pleia2thanks, mostly this has come about because work has been so intense lately, I am not as productive in the evenings as usual21:05
