Migrating to WordPress !!

Dear All..

This is my first post on WordPress.. Using Windows Live Writer ( as usual !!).

Microsoft will shutdown the spaces service on March 2011. The migration tool they provide to migrate from Spaces to WordPress is really simple. Just create your WordPress account, and it is only a button click.

 

The process all took about 2 or 3 minutes and everything was ready. Even, the url for my old blog ( http://TamerMaher.spaces.live.com) now maps to my new one automatically ( http://TamerMaher.wordpress.com). That’s really cool, as it will save me some time till everybody knows the new address.

 

What wasn’t migrated:-

. ALL the HTML modules I had , for the title and legal disclaimer on my old blog

. All my left side links:

                 . My about and photo.

                  . Amazon Support me wish list

                 . Linked in link

                 . Facebook link

                 . Tecnorati Link

                 . My Youtube link

                 . Visitor Locataions Gadget

.   And of course My Colour theme.

. And on the right, a list of my favorite blogs..

So, untill  I do some new modifications, to add that stuff back , it is enough for you to know it existed !!!
