Feed Description: Scott Hanselman's ComputerZen.com is a .NET/WebServices/XML Weblog. I offer details of obscurities (internals of ASP.NET, WebServices, XML, etc) and best practices from real world scenarios.
Well, last night's ephipany was right-on. I finished DasBlogRadioCommentImport and
ran it last night, importing hundreds of reader comments and successfully integrating
them into each related dasBlog entry. Let me know if you want the code via email.
When I get access, I'll post it on the GotDotNet
workspace.
All in all, the Radio "conversion" was a big stick of butter. Here's the goodness:
Taking Clemen's lead, I modified my Radio template to include JavaScript and META
refresh tags. Some Details
here.
dasBlog handles these redirects with a regular expression based $g(Url Rewriting)
Module that is pure genius. I added a series of expressions that didn't exist
in order to handle Radio Categories and Radio Stories.
I imported all the Radio content with the included DasBlogRadioImporter. Good.
Then I wrote DasBlogRadioCommentImport. Better.
All in all, for existing Radio Userland users, dasBlog offers a fantastic migration
story. All my existing Google Radio links work.
