I managed to get wordpress going. I haven’t transferred anything over. I decided to set up a knitting blog, as it was the easiest subcategory of the things that I write about here to spin off into its own area. There will probably be very intermittent blogging going over there, as I am slow with the knitting, and it is more of a test blog than anything else.
The fabled 5 minute set-up took me more like 15 minutes, but I was trying to set things up during the commerical breaks of the Alias season finale. Is it bad that I find slightly sadistic torturing Vaughn so much more attractive than the mopey Vaughn that has been present for most of the season? So far, I’m digging wordpress, but I’m going to give myself some time to play around with it before I decide if I want to transfer everything over.
I feel like I have a shiny new toy! I am such a geek!
Wow. I’m so imressed!
We must chat soon… it’s been a while!
It wasn’t too hard! I’m sure you could get yourself set up even faster!
With the problems I’ve been having with Typepad lately, I’ve looked into Wordpress as well. So far I haven’t made any decisions, but I do think I’ll be moving soon because I’ve become frustrated at the inability to have no control over space I pay for.
I’m sort of waiting for the “feature release” of Movabletype 3.0 before making a decision, but the licensing restrictions are probably going to be a dealbreaker for me. I have a feeling I’m going to migrate over to wordpress when things are less hectic
I really like the link management/link categories feature wordpress lets you have, I don’t know if you can do this in movabletype or not.
