imo any thing can be moved given the tools.

Whether you choose mt or wp upgrading is best either way

@ Scalzi

I stand corrected then!

Thanks for the note as well.

@61 you can import to wp without touching the existing database (though you should always back up before non-touch or touch).

He uses a local installation NOT wordpress.com

It's Mamp for Mac

For windows I prefer Wamp.

Now I could use a Namp.

(Sue me, I couldn't help myself).

@ 42 Erik

I'm a Captcha fan as far as that goes but good comment spam filters would help.

Like I said I use Wordpress in all my development. My most volume heavy site wordpress holds very well (they improve the code all the time.) We get about 1000 unique hits day hits a day much more with page reloads and such.

Three years ago is a long time in WP development. I'm using the most updated version right now.

Either Way THERE IS NO WAY to tell without mucking in the code.

Shrug...not a fan of MT because over time it proves again and again to not be stable.

There can be lots of other reasons. Can't really do better than assume unless I look at the backend.

I've moved several blogs and sites from MT to wordpress...even my own in the past.

It's very easy imo.

Heya,

I'm willing to volunteer if you move to wordpress. I run everything through wordpress and I'm pretty handy at moving content into from other blogs.

I write html and css in text editors, and most sites I maintain are in wordpress whether they are blogs or not. I work with php and mysql. (your sever seems to have the right stats anyway).

Wordpress is clean, functional, free and modular. I'm pretty good at fixing code so it will work as a wordpress theme.

Why will I volunteer my time? Cause I like you people :D. I'm a web designer anyway and I love my job so much I do it in my spare time too.
Posted on entry TIME magazine to readers: "Interact with us" means nothing more than "promote us for free" ::: February 03, 2009, 11:50 AM:
This is my pain.

Trying to explain Spam Bad to marketing people is like talking to a brick wall and expecting it to respond. It's insanity.

Part of my job entails using Constant Contact. I limit the use to a weekly newsletter but they constantly try to justify ways to send out multiple mailings a day. Telling them that we would loose our account and/or get sued doesn't seem to deter them.

Not us...they say. Marketers...even the young ones seem to have very little grasp on the web.

I want to send my best wishes and hopes.

Send.

Actually many just think temps are stupid...I was a temp for too long.

#1: No government is run like the alcohol industry which is run:

"It’s like working in an office where half of upper management is visibly (if you’re paying attention) falsifying expense reports, using company accounts to order home furnishings, giving lucrative consulting gigs to their ne’er-do-well buddies, and altering the file copies of old performance evaluations in order to justify firing anyone who gets in their way. Meanwhile, the rest of upper management is issuing generic statements about how we need integrity in our everyday practices if we’re going to become the truly great company we have the potential to be—when they’re not issuing memos expressing vague conventional regrets that yet another one of their number has been taken down by the bad guys."

Yes I'm disgusted.
Posted on entry Palin and McCain ::: August 29, 2008, 02:20 PM:
Gah, not happy. The anti-abortion thing really cheeses me off.

McCain himself makes me not want to vote for him...I say this as a repub.

@16 Carol

Those lights are all over Colorado...especially Greeley since UNC is located on a diagonal and Ft. Collins, just cause. It's nice for pedestrians.

That's so cool, lots of stuff I missed.
Posted on entry P - A - R - T - Y? 'Cause I gotta ::: August 08, 2008, 10:54 AM:
If you need something to do before and after the party drop by gaming. We're at the top of the escalators on the way to the Con Suite in the Sheraton.

We're even having a Fluxx Tournament Saturday!

#78: Ah yes, Tacticon and Genghis. I have a brand new website for them. Soon they will be out of Luddite land. But for those I just run Serenity games (plug: come play the first at Worldcon!) and maintain the website.

I'm less bald than the coordinators.

Hey all,

#65: I'm running gaming for worldcon...12 ring circus....hah...I'd give it at least 50. The thing is they aren't interested in bringing in the locals...it'll hurt eventually...aging population is not a good thing.

#66: Bencon is defunct. It's never coming back...there are efforts for a new benefit gaming convention in Denver though.

I'll be at gaming most of the time (in the party hotel)...but I'll have to try to get away for this.

Posted on entry The Libertarian Party: racism for smart people ::: July 08, 2008, 10:38 AM:
He began splitting the party as soon as he got nominated...many libertarians are not voting for him.

As a pagan, I cannot.
