Oh the pain… starting the move to WordPress — it’s not fun

I’ve been looking into how the move to WordPress would be for several months and have put it off this long because it’s such a pain.  EVERYTHING is manual and you lose pagerank in the process!  I was hoping that something would change by the time I had to do it but no, it’s all still the same pain in the ass it was when I planned on doing it a few months ago.  But, now time has run out and if I don’t get off of Typepad they’ll bill be for another year.

So, blog will likely be down for most of the day but hopefully back up by tomorrow morning — or later tonight.

Word of advice: if you’re even thinking of starting a blog just go right to WordPress — either WordPress.com or a self-hosted version so you don’t have a major project on your hands later if you decide you want to move it which there’s a very good chance you will since alot of people want more control and better SEO after awhile.

Update:
The move is now done but there’s still some funkyness I’m working on but plus need to add all the plugins a few pages, and might just change the theme… not sure about this one..
