How to get my posts from Wordpress.com to Blogger?
-
I want to migrate entries from Wordpress.com to Blogger. Is there any easy way to do this? I made the Blogger to Wordpress.com switch a few years ago, but love the new Blogger interface. I find that being able to label posts is a lot less restrictive than Wordpress's categories. Migrating to Wordpress was a flash. But, going the other way seems to be a problem. I've tried to Google this, and most of the info out there seems to say that at the moment, this is impossible to do. I've found a couple of tools like blog2blog, but none have worked this far. Oh technically inclined MeFites, please help. P.S. I'm not technically inclined, so I really don't have a way to write a program or anything to do this.

Answer:
Using the .xml format should allow you to tranfer your blog entries from one to another (I haven't try this myself but the process seems pretty straightforward): http://faq.wordpress.com/2006/05/07/can-i-migrate-my-blog-from-here-to-another-blog-somewhere-else/ and http://help.blogger.com/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=97416

Googeling (Googling?) "migrate from wordpress to blogger" (without the quotes) gets me http://www.google.com/search?q=migrate+from+wordpress+to+blogger&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&client=firefox-a. I looked at http://www.cuberick.com/2007/05/migrating-from-wordpress-to-blogger.html, http://www.mrwiseguyblog.com/2008/06/wordpress-to-blogger-migration.html, and http://blog.robinsonhouse.com/2007/05/migrating-wordpress-to-blogger.html. All offer a slightly different solution, and since I haven't tried it I don't know if any or better than another.

@ddaavvviidd: Alas, I have already tried exporting an .xml file of my Wordpress.com blog to Blogger. For some reason, Wordpress XML doesn't play nice with Blogger. @theichibun: I've been to a few of those sites and tried those methods, but none of them seem to work for me. Oh well, it was worth a shot. My old blog will have to live in Wordpress unless I decide to manually import it. Please keep the suggestions coming, everyone.
