What happened to the blog?

Until today I was using some obscure blogging software that although it worked was actually pretty naff. As a new company website is currently in development I was going to wait for the new website before changing over to using WordPress. However, today the obscure blogging software finally gave up the ghost and so I am forced to switch over right now.

If I was a PHP programmer I could probably investigate and try to resolve the problem myself, but I really do not want to spend the time learning enough PHP to fix it up. So instead I am switching over to WordPress immediately. At the moment it uses the default template which is a little less than exciting. Once the release of Krypton 2.5.0 is out the door (sometime later this week) then I will get back to upgrading the website and improvng the blog template to match.

But what about all the old posts? Well I will of course get those added into WordPress. Either by writing a funky bit of PHP to take them from the old text file and injecting them into the database directly or alternatively just adding them manually. Of the two I prefer the automated approach but that depends on how hard the task turns out to be.
