I’ve written up how to modify the Blogger importer so that Blogger’s unique “post slugs” are imported into WordPress as well: Maintain permalinks moving from Blogger to WordPress.

I created a simple script that grabs lat;long data from a custom field for each post and then adds all those points to a Google Maps interface, with links back to the original post. It’s a pretty effective way to browse your archives for posts with a geographic focus.

Here’s a description of what I did:

Here’s the map in action:

I just whipped up a simple random image plugin that digs through my blog posts and returns an image tag that links back to the blog post at random. It’s really cool to see it in action (on the right side of my homepage).

I’ve posted more information on importing blogger and haloscan here:

There’s another thread that deals with the question of importing haloscan comments into WordPress.

I’ve written a script that imports Haloscan comments (CAIF format) into WordPress (assuming you also just imported a Blogger blog with one minor revision to the import process).
