Molly explains her move, an interesting read.

Molly.com Switches
Molly E. Holzschlag, author of Teach Yourself Movable Type and much else, has switched to WordPress. Her switch was quite an adventure. Getting the data out of a partially-corrupted Berkeley database into something either MT or WordPress could parse really was a challenge .
Big Pink Cookie
Christine, who came up with the name “WordPress” about a year ago, has switched to WordPress from Movable Type. 3,500 posts and 17,000 comments were imported without a hitch.
Life Hacks Video
Anyone have a copy of Danny O’Brien’s Life Hacks video from NotCon? (Update: The video is now online. I’m downloading it now.)
PHP Pear
Rotten PEAR. I’ve noticed a “good ‘ol boy” mentality in most of the PHP “community” efforts. Is PHP succeeding because of its community or in spite of it? Hat tip: Jeff Moore.
Perl’s Special Variables

More FOAFers
Danny Ayers, semantic web advocate, likes how WordPress handles Iñtërnâtiônàlizætiøn. Jim Ley, another RDF/FOAF guy, has also switched to WordPress. Where are they coming from?

Map out your posting locations, very groovy. Uses RSS.
Dan Brickley
Dan Brickley, creator of FOAF and W3C RDF advocate, is using WordPress.
Blogs By Their Covers
Judge blogs by their covers, powered by WordPress.
Bush2004
Bush2004 upgrades to WordPress blog, I think I saw this guy at SxSW, if he was indeed the one wearing the bush2004.com hat and t-shirt.
Another Linking policy
CNET News.com linking policy. Seems sane.
The Saint WP
A Windows/Apache/MySQL/PHP distribution offers WordPress as their first plugin. Is it just me or do all of these things come out of Germany?
