Exporting My blog from Blogger

Well I decided to try and export my blog entries from Blogger and import them into BlogEngine.Net.   It turns out that Blogger doesn't make this very easy.  I searched the web and came across an awesome entry that provides a guide and script to complete the export task.

After I was able to get an XML file of my blog entries I then used the BlogML interface built into BlogEngine.Net to import into my current blog.  There were a couple of things worth noticing:

  • The blogs with embedded pictures seems to still reference the Blogger location.  I am in the process of cleaning them up manually.
  • The Categories didn't show up after the upload.  Not sure if it's worth it to go back through the entries and update them.

Other than that I haven't noticed anything else wrong.
