You Goofed me Google! Export with caution!

For anyone using Google Blogger:

Please be extremely careful with your posts and blogs. I recently transferred posts from one blog to another and found out that the export feature of Google Blogger was not all that it was cracked up to be, if you use jump breaks.

Apparently, Blogger exports your posts in Atom format, which seems harmless enough, except when you use jump breaks. It will cut the post off at the jump break and then put in a link to the old blog post. Combine that with cleaning up posts at the old blog and you will loose precious posts. Currently, half of my posts are now gone. Months of blogging are now nothing more than short posts that I will never be able to recreate.

If you want to export/import your Google Blog, be sure to go to "Feed Setting" under the Settings tag, and set "Allow Blog Feeds" to "Full" before you export. This should allow your blog feeds to be exported in full.
