I want to migrate to scriptogr.am, but after a weekend of failed attempts modifying [Jekyll Blog Migration scripts][github], I was giving the free market (and my laziness) a nudge.

While posterous demise makes tumblr the winner of the space, I do think its social features/direction really gets in the way for those that just want a simple and fast blog.

Some more links for anyone interested hint, hint, wink, wink:

    * [ import-from-tumblr.js][github 2]
    * [Tumblr to Jekyll migration][github 3]
    * [ Migrating from Tumblr to Jekyll][55minutes]
    * [Markdown to HTML to Markdown to…][pennywised]
