Condensing My Blogs

Okay, so I know that I am not the best person at sticking with a single blog title or address, but yesterday I discovered something amazing that will fix the problems I have had with switching a blog and not being able to take all of my old posts with me.

Blogger has a beta site called Draft Blogger that allows a person to see some of the upcoming features while they are still being worked on. Well, one of the new features that is nearly perfected is the ability to import and export your blog as a .xml file. What this means is that after a bit of hunting around for old passwords and usernames I was able to export both Scrap Judgment and Dispensing With Accuracy onto the hard drive of my MacBook and then import them into the same account that I use for this blog.

Once I had done all that, I was given the option of publishing all of my posts from the two old blogs, and when I did it put them onto this blog in the same order, on the same dates. Now it looks like I've been using this blog address from the very beginning. How cool is that?
