Self-hosted blog one year ago
Filed Under LiveJournal, Twitter, Web site, WordPress, blog
I just noticed, while looking at some of my blog stats that I just Tweeted about, that my blog has been self-hosted for over a year now. It was a year back in April 2008. Remember I switched over from Livejournal.
bizcards How did I do that you ask? A special plug-in: LJ user ex WordPress Plug-in. It converts <lj user=”username”> or <lj user=”community”> to look like it would if it was in LiveJournal. I still have my entries cross-posted to my old LiveJournal. All those entries are friends only there. This was made possible by LJ-XP (LiveJournal CrossPoster).
I am looking forward to another year or more of my blog being self-hosted.
There are still a lot of changes I have in stored for my blog in the upcoming months. As you have read in previous post, I have combined old sub-domains and such onto my blog. That is just the start! So please keep coming back and finding out what is new!

Forgot to mention, that all my public entries that was on LiveJournal were imported into my self-hosted blog. I started LiveJournal in 2004. This year, I have been blogging for 5 years now!

Oh yea and most of those entries do not have tags or categories applied to them. Too many past entries to edit and do that to. I have done a few here and there, when I needed to point back to that entry or such.
