After years of Movable Type I’ve finally decided I’ve had enough.<\/p>\n

Movable Type was great years ago, there was a lot of community around it, lots of themes available, plugins and it was a great little blogging platform.\u00a0 Today it seems world and dog has deserted it and moved on, you can find almost no out of the box themes for it even if you wanted to pay, not to mention the situation with few plugins etc.<\/p>\n

I went through the considerable pain during the last week to migrate things into WordPress and I think I finally got most of it kind of working.\u00a0 There will be the usual pains of RSS feeds showing old content, broken links and so forth and I apologize for this up front.<\/p>\n

The move also made a new theme a necessity, I bought a few commercial ones but none of them really worked for me in the end I settled for one of the free ones that’s featured by WordPress, it’s ok I guess, I might change it again in the near future.\u00a0 As before when I migrated blogs I’ve kept a screenshot of the old layouts: 2007-12-06<\/a> and 2009-10-09<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
