I did it!

I migrated the MyChores journal across to WordPress! I found some excellent scripts to perform the migration (not everything worked since the Typo journal was horribly out of date!) so i have all the posts and categories as before, plus there was some dark magic involved to keep the old permalink format and redirect the old RSS URLs to the new ones, meaning that the feeds should still work.

This morning i found a nice theme for it which is based on the Kubrick theme so that the OpenID works, but looks a bit more like the theme i used to have. The theme was not widget-aware but i managed to hack that a bit, and now i've got the sidebar showing the same content as the old sidebar used to. Brilliant! :)

This post sounds like a complete spew of geeky waffle, doesn't it! haha!
