Emigration is difficult when you can’t get your property out the country
Transferring stuff over from LiveJournal is a bit less hit, a bit more miss than anticipated. Most of the problems are caused by the fact that, while the LJ API offers all the tricks you’d expect for exporting blog posts, the web-based export tool supports very few of these features. You can’t save any of the comments for the posts. There is no “export all” function: everything has to be done a month at a time. Blech.
The good news is that Helen has agreed to do guest food blogging and, maybe, science blogging too. That will be cool beans. (And also probably fried beans, and maybe some kind of warming bean soup.)
