Matthew GrayI've decided to try out blogger because my old blog software (blosxom, which I love) was getting a little stale and I wanted to support comments again. I'm not (yet) going to migrate my old posts over here, but I might.
I decided to go with Blogger (rather than any of the other also good free choices) for a few reasons:
- Part of my annoyance with my old setup was that I was sick of dealing with configuring and tweaking it. Blogger is entirely turnkey, including hosting it on my own domain.
- I already have code that will upload my blosxom files into Blogger if I decide to do the full switch, using the Blogger API.
- I work for Google, I know some of the Blogger folks and it's good to use your own products, even if I don't work on Blogger itself.

Is there a feed for all comments to all posts, rather than the per-post comments feeds?
Yes, http://matthew.gray.org/feeds/comments/default, and I added a link to the main page.
Matthew: Can you tell us (me, anyway) if you migrated old posts and how you did it? I am looking to move a blog from blosxom to blogger.

I posted the details, including the script, here:
