I’m really liking wordpress… I liked the other (xanga) blog tools so much and this one is more challenging that way — but really, I must say, I love the people I’ve been meeting here (some came also from xanga).
If you did get a backup at Xanga… here’s how to move if you want the whole backup on wordpress: http://blog.encode.co.nz/2013/06/05/jumping-ship-how-to-migrate-a-blog-form-xanga-to-wordpress/

It appears Xanga has become the “poor man’s” WordPress rather than the “rich upgrade” they were advertising before the changeover. Lots of frustrated folks over there now.
yes — it was dying a very slow death — but it is as nearly dead as it can get — will it arise from the death?

Anyone remember the good old My Dear Diary days? Man that was a long time ago… I met a lot of people there!
You can have a much larger reader base here than at Xanga. If you make the effort and write a lot. I just think my ambitious days blogging are behind me. Xanga allowed me to coast and still have a large reader base. Here i need to start all over. I hope xanga is not planning on keeping the walls up to were wordpress and other blogging sites can not link to it.
Hi Paige. I’m not planning to become widely read. However, I actually so far find that the viewers are inspiring me to post more than I’d intended.
Good luck and happiness I pray are yours!

I’m not sure about the new xanga. Being here is okay. I saved most of my posts and pics from xanga to my computer, so I decided not to try to move them here.
I did the same. I have all of my work; if I decide to post that here, I add those pages as new here.
I definitely miss the old Xanga. I didn’t think that I would like it here very much, but I am loving it. It’s great that there are many people from Xanga here and there are some interesting new blogs to read. I’ll probably just have Xanga to comment.
GREAT… I’m glad you are having a nice time too. You are a cool lady.
I had the same thought when I switched from xanga. Now that 2.0 is going up I’m not sure how I feel. I honestly don’t think I’m going to switch over. I’m starting to really enjoy my wordpress as a blog site itself and not just a filler for xanga.
YAY! I just love it when people are happy — here or there — just being happy is so cool.
