This particular post is being written from GMail, transfered to my blog server by email, processed by some massage scripts and then integrated into my blog without me doing much about it. Neat ne?

As I decided to migrate my blog from blogger.com to my own blogging software on my own domain, I did not want to leave my old posts behind. As I had more then 150 of them, I had to do some automation to do that within my lifetime.
