So it's April 2009 and Yahoo 360 never fulfilled its promised improvements by "end of 2008". Clearly, they've abandoned their users. I haven't blogged in a long while simply because it's too painful to do so, with Y360 being sluggish and buggy and generally craptacular. I also haven't gone down the road of gradually copy-pasting each post one by one, because that would be excruciating beyond belief. I've been stuck in blog-limbo (blimbo?).
I hunted around on the internets to find out what other, more clever people have done in this situation. I found a bit of software someone wrote (in .NET... kudos to you, sir) to export a Y360 blog into WordPress format. It even included all the comments! Score! The WordPress-to-Blogger conversion, however, was not so easy. I tried a few different tricks out there, none of which worked 100%. Well ok then, WordPress it is.
The new blog is located here. Although all the old entries have been imported, there's definitely some clean-up that needs to be done, after which I'll blog-flurry (blurry?) to bring all my fan-base up to speed on my exciting (bahaha) life. As they say on Metro... we regret the inconvenience and thank you for your patience.
