“Hey, does this MT blog make my ass look big?”
Miss Venomous Kate’s porting to WordPress has so far inspired Chris Noble and Donnie Hall to convert their blogs as well. E-Claire has also gone ahead and tried it out on my test blog.
I also asked Kate how much disc space she has saved, following deletion of her old archives. Her answer:
With MT, my database size was 54.3 meg and I used 180 meg of disk space. With WP, my database is all of 8.2 meg and I’m using only 52.99 meg of disk space. A very nice savings!
When I said that someone big was porting to WordPress, I was not expecting a snowballing effect that’s only bound to grow. (And no, I think those sweatpants would look good on you either way, Miss VK!)

Phew! I’d hate to have to give them up in favor of something less comfy.

It’s really amazing… It seems like the floodgates have opened and everyone is moving on from Monumental Hype…

Maybe a better verb choice would be in order here.
