I WAS going to move my blog back to Blogger from Wordpress, but

As it turns out, there is no easy way to import all my posts. The tools I found are outdated, or just didn't work.

But, Dewitt Clinton had a great idea to use Blogger as a micro blog. This goes to feedburner, which then tweets your title with a link.

Upshot? An accessible archive of tweets. Plus, the Android app for Blogger records your location.

I'm curious if the location info transfers through RSS to Twitter and Google Buzz? Will find out shortly.

Location: Rio De Vida Apartments, 301 South Inspiration Road, Mission, TX, United States

I had the same problem when I moved back to blogger. But, I made the move anyway, I probably have 10 readers so it's not a big deal and I still have the wordpress.com site if I need the history. Maybe someday someone will write a converter that works.

Probably nobody cares what I do with the Wordpress blog; but, I still feel strange leaving it out there.

Before Getting Out of the Gate

Tonight, I was working on a new blog project. Google and Blogger have been good platforms for me in the past. I was able to get the domain pointed and was working on the layout and template. Suddenly, the website was blocked. I had searched for ways to publish that were not subject to censorhsip. I wound up on the Hive blockchain. It's great for censorship resistance, but it's not without its problems. In any case, I was thinking that maybe I was being too paranoid. Now, before getting out of the gate, I have a blog censored. I'm trying to think of what I could have posted, reposted, or even been associated with that could have caused the blog to be blocked. I can't think of anything. If this doesn't pan out after review, I may need to look for an alternative hosting option. I was already looking at Publii as an option. It only requieres simple FTP updates. I prefer not to use Wordpress as experience has taught me that you an customize a theme and add plugins ...

Blogger blocks excessive posting

A while ago, I tried uploading a blog post via Android App. The upload kept failing. Not to be deterred, I deleted the app and reinstalled, to find no better success. I thought that perhaps I could email the post to Blogger. That did not work either. The email bounced back with the following: Technical details of permanent failure: You have exceeded the the allowable number of posts without solving a captcha. This happened because I imported quite a few blog posts from another blog I discontinued just yesterday. It has been less than 24 hours since the import. It makes sense. I'm rather certain the captcha speedbump is also why the mobile app refused to publish my posts. The problem can be circumvented if you post directly on the Blogger site and solve the captcha. This problem will likely resolve in the next few hours and all will be right with the universe once more.
