Moving to Posterous

My personal blog has resided at http://jackieplage.com for quite a while now.  I don't blog regularly over there however, and haven't for a number of months.  I'm not sure why, I guess I just lost interest.  Microblogging has definitely effected the frequency of my regular blog posts, but there are times when 140 characters just doesn't cut it.

Posterous has now added quite a number of useful features, and it's very convenient to use.  I'm hoping that a fresh start will give me the push I need to blog a little more frequently.  That said, I can't be held accountable for the quality of posts here, I'm not about to devote a lot of time to it.  My intention is to do that on a more concentrated subject over at http://naxtr.com instead.

So I guess this blog will be used more for snippets that are a little too big for identi.ca, with a possible random sprinkling of more traditional blog posts.

Incidentally, I did try to import my old blog (running WordPress) into Posterous, but it lost all the formatting.  There's no way in hell I'm going to go back over a few hundred posts and re-do all the paragraph breaks etc.!  When I'm feeling less lazy I'll do some searching around and see if there's a solution for that.

Wow you lost all paragraph formatting?? That sucks. I was thinking of switching a blog over but if that's gonna happen that will ruin my blog so i don't think so.
