Dear Blogger
I’ve thought long and hard about this and I really don’t know how to say this to you but…. I’m leaving you.
We really can’t be together anymore – It’s just not working out for me and to be perfectly honest, I’ve found someone else, someone who I think I can have a long and satisfying relationship with.
Please don’t me too upset, there’s plenty of other bloggers out there for you.
It’s not me, it’s you.
Yours excitedly
The blogger about to move to WordPress
******************************
Dear WordPress
I’ve finally done it, after months of deliberating and agonising I have taken the plunge and ended it with Blogger. I finally understand that you and I are destined to be together.
I hope we will be very happy together.
Your lovingly
Your new blogger

Dear Technorati
You and I have a strange relationship don’t we? You accept my claim with no problems at all and let me get all smug when everyone else experiences problem after problem with you and then all of a sudden you just reduce my score to a big fat zero for a few days.
I’m glad you saw fit to increase it again and I hope that you will assist me in making my transfer to WordPress go smoothly.
Yours hopefully
A very nervous blogger

Dear Friends on Twitter
Please be ready for the twenty million questions I will be asking over the next few days. I believe the politically correct term for me would be technically challenged so I have a feeling that this whole changing to WordPress idea may be too much for my technical skills to take.
Lots of love

Dear Google Friend Connect
Would you like to explain to me why you will not display your little boxy thing on my blog? I like to see the smiley faces of all my followers and I really don’t know why you’ve decided I can’t! It’s not fair and if you don’t work in the next ten minutes I’ll cry and stamp my feet.
Yours hopefully
A very stressed blogger

Dear Feedburner
Why must you confuse me so much, all I want to do is to redirect my old subscribers to my new feed with you…. In this day and age how can this be so difficult?
Kind Regards
A very frustrated blogger

Dear Glass of Wine
As ever, I will meet you in the kitchen at 8pm, I have a feeling that I will need you more than ever in the next few days.
Love from your best friend x x

You can still try the Urban Giraffe Plug in now – it looks as though Ellie
at Insomniac Mummy used hers a while after changing and still got her
followers back – The only way I could find it was to Google it, then download in
and upload it into WordPress x
Thanks very much – I'm so pleased everything seems to be sorted now – I
used the redirect function in Blogger and the Urban Giraffe Plug in for
WordPress that Insomniac Mummy blogged about a while ago.
Oh! Congratulations on the move! All looking good here! And your old feed seems to be working. How did you do that? I lost all my subscribers when I moved to feedburner!
Thank you – that's really kind. x
Oooh do you know how I can change the origin feed or it is too late now I've set up a new feed x
WordPress is loads better than Blogger 😉
Let me know when you change if you need anything x
All sorted x
Lol – looking forward to it
I wondered where you had gone!
Don't burn a new feed with feedburner. I just found out (too late for me) that you can keep your old feed, but just change the origin feed.
I've been on WordPress a long time and I've just changed URL too so if you have any questions I can try and help!
Oooh I didn't know you could do that – do you know what I would need to do?
WordPress seems loads better so I def think it's been worth the trauma!
ooh darling! see you at eight. I'll bring the corkscrew and the cheese straws
glass of wine

lol – it’s a date
I'm trying to email you about the secret post club but its bouncing back. could be something to do with the move perhaps? do you have a new email address? Can you get in touch with me asap? cheers love xx
All sorted now 😉
I'm going to be right there with you very soon. Am planning a move myself. Best of luck with it all. x
I have had a bit of a nightmare but I’m getting sorted. It’s just about knowing where to find the information isn’t it?
Good luck
