Publishing trouble

May 21, 2008

Blogger has been having trouble for the past 2 days, leading to the inability to publish entries and comments. Apologies.

As an aside, if anyone knows a reliable consultant who can migrate a 400-megabyte, 12,000+ post Blogger blog to WordPress, I would appreciate suggestions.

Talk to FatDoctor — I bet she’s got some good suggestions :-) (she lost her blog).

I hate blogger, and would migrate to word press myself if I had the time.

Get out, get out if you can…

I don’t know anyone personal, but I found some promising information by googling “migrate from blogger to wordpress”. I would contact one of the folks who wrote up some of the top ranking articles.

Hmmm. I have not noticed any particular problems, but I don’t publish near as often as you do. I was debating doing the same for mine, but decided to stick with blogger after much review. What things would lead you to go to WordPress in particular?

I know it’s not as “powerful” as wordpress or blogger, but moving to tumblr and using disqus for comments was the best move I made for simplifying my life. Good luck! Wordpress was nothing but headaches for me.

Hey Kevin — you’re the top rated medblogger — why don’t you just call Google and get them to sort out the problems for you? The bad press can’t be worth it to them.

My friend Jackie Lightfield can do this migration. Her phone number (in Connecticut) is 1-203-854-9512 and her e-mail is marketing@pockettourguide.com

Good luck!

I think Fat doctor had Moof help her when she went to word press. But, she has now went back to blogger. Be careful about moving over there. Blogger is much easier to use. Evaluate first.

Both Moof and Enrico the (former) Mexico Medical Student helped me. Moof is a bit busy with school now, but I’d check with Enrico. He’s a master.
