Upgrading a Windows Live Spaces blog to WordPress.com
There are 30 million people who are actively using Windows Live Spaces and have been eagerly awaiting the next set of new blogging features. For these customers, Windows Live and WordPress.com have worked together to build a simple way to move your blog posts, comments, and integrated photos right over to WordPress.com and start taking advantage of all their new features. And we’ll also redirect all your old Spaces URLs to your new blog, so you don’t lose any visitors along the way.

One of my all time favorites by Chris Pearson was/is CopyBlogger. His themes are always a joy to work with.

Please excuse the construction and use the Blog tab rather than Home for the moment, lots to learn.

I saw this article over at NetWorkWorld dated 01/31/08. Google blog used to spread malware
A Google-hosted blog is running phony security content that’s linked to malware, as well as using Google’s automated notification service to try to entice subscribers to click on an infected link, says one security expert.
“This is the first time we’ve seen something like this,” Elzam says. “If you get a message from a Google alert, you might think this is a service you can trust. But it’s directing you to a rogue site with fake security software.
This stuff is not new, but it is getting worse. A few days ago one of my alerts for Google Blogs provided a link which opened to a graphic pOrn page complete with videos, ‘click this to play’. Shortcut to infection via codecs, don’t ever click that junk.
I was watching for blogs containing the word of an outfit not usually associated with pOrn.
