Importing from Blogger to WordPress

WordPress has a tool that simply makes that happen. When you push the ‘magic button’, it takes all the entries from your blogger blog into your wordpress blog. That’s why all those entries of wit and wisdom and quotes and stories are actually here!

You can go to the old blog, but you don’t have to. And the import tool brought in the pictures too, and the categories. Of course, I hadn’t done anything fancy in Blogger, but I’m impressed that it’s all here together now.

The WordPress codex has all the details.

Simple picture editing: resolution and compression

I never understood resolution. As soon as someone said “resolution”, I said “Find my graphic design person. Oops. I don’t have one.” And then I went screaming away, leaving no images behind. Blah blah blah (so to speak).

Well, lo and behold, hiddin in the Microsoft Office folder is Microsoft Office Picture Manager. It’s such a simple tool for cropping, resizing, compressing.

I can now actually put images into my blog and web without the ‘file size too large’ error problem. I can also organize them so I don’t have a mega-gundo image in a little tiny post. Wow. Simple and right under my fingertips.
