A New Blog
May 3rd, 2006
Well, I have been using SnipSnap as my blog software on muhlesteins.com for quite some time. I did some work on our virtual server technology yesterday and woops, snipsnap now refused to load up all the posts that I orginally had at muhlesteins.com. Well, I searched around a little while for a solution and was unsuccessful.
What I did find (I already knew this), is that the developers of SnipSnap are not actively maintaining the project. It has been beta sofware for a very long time. Since I have no desire to contribute to it and I have no desire to try to fix it, I've finally decided to ditch it.
The real test will be to see if there is some way I can get all the content I had moved over here. I have all the data still but I'm going to have to get some time to figure out how to import it. SnipSnap uses a markup format that is unique to itself so I'll have to see if I can write a script to convert the format to something that is readable by wordpress.
In the mean time, I'll post some of the recent news.

I’ve been puzzling over the picture, but I still can’t tell the flavor. (If there is something to see, then it must be anoither boy. I see a number of interesting shapes, but I can’t tell for sure.)

I found your blog by googling for “convert snipsnap wordpress.” Since I see you’re up and running on wp and you seem to have content from ‘05 does this mean you successfully managed to convert your snip space to wp? If so, could you post / e-mail whatever script or tool you used?
Thanks,
Scott H.

I started to work on it, but I no longer had the content that I really wanted so I ditched the effort. The content on here from earlier came from my blogger account which Wordpress can automatically import.
Sorry.
