This is what I got in my mail yesterday and, I must admit, I was quite alarmed.
After almost eight years of severe financial problems, TypePad has finally decided to shut down its blogging website on May 1, 2012. TypePad Pro users now have until April 30, 2012 to move all their blogs and profile information to Blogger, if they wish. However, TypePad is not going to do this for you.
This is what you can do:
- Log into your TypePad profile.
- Save and download to your computer anything you have on your TypePad profile that you want to keep.
- Go to Blogger and upload your photos and other information. Then make your new Blogger profile look how you want it to look.
- Move your TypePad blog(s). If you have anything on your TypePad blogs that you don't want to lose don't forget about it. Blogger will help you through.
- Save information from your TypePad profile, RSS feeds, tags, or your custom theme. These items will not be supported by Blogger, but if you have use for them somewhere else, you'll need to save them yourself.
- Change your privacy settings. TypePad will be setting all your privacy settings to "Private". If you want to utilize the social networking aspect of your new Blogger profile, you'll need to go and change your privacy settings first.
HAPPY APRIL FOOL’S DAY!!!!
