rfmcdonaldAs a result of the ongoing changes in LiveJournal, I've decided to transition away from that platform to something more durable.
WordPress--where I already maintain a blog--and Dreamwidth are the front-runners at present. I'll let everyone know where I end up.
Most importantly from my perspective, can anyone offer suggestions as to how I can transport my ten years' archived posts from LiveJournal over to one or both destinations? WordPress.com's online forums haven't been much help of late, and I shudder to imagine what problems I could encounter at Dreamwidth. (No one will be surprised to learn that LiveJournal's ability to export data is laughably bad. Here's hoping my Semagic copy will be exportable.)
Help.
