About three months ago I decided to leave Microsoft’s Live Spaces platform for blogging (link). They suddenly removed some functionality without prior notice and that go me thinking in that posting: “Or MS could just call it a day and throw away the whole Spaces thing”. It seems that I was right because “WordPress welcomes Windows Live Spaces Bloggers“.
I chose WordPress myself as a new platform and it took me a lot of time and effort to tweak an existing tool to export the old content and import it into the new platform. Luckiliy there was a third party tool! Microsoft did NOT provide an export function at that time. But now they do. Because they slipped under the covers with WP themselves…
That means the circle is round and it’s time to do away with the old site. Good riddance!
