Habari is great in that it is a rich and rewarding community of users and developers that are always adding cool new features and fun things. Included in the default list of plugins is a WordPress importer. As a former WordPress user, I thought it would be great to import my posts dating all the way back to 2004. Some of these posts I'm not so proud of, as they feature some pretty terrible lack of importance, grammar, capitalization and ya, basically good content. Despite this, I attempted to run the importer hoping to bring back my early days as a blogger. It worked for the first few hundred posts (I apparently had 686 posts in my database) but the importer then seemed to stall. Frustrated, I ended up removing my entire Habari install and database and started with a fresh and clean install of Habari. I meant to keep the four comments I had received, but neglected to do so. I have since decided it's probably just better to start nice and clean and look forward to new blogging. I might go back and manually import some of the highlights from my blogging in the past few years, but that sounds like something that would take a long time. Obviously I'm far too busy to do this. With the job that I don't have.
