  5. Woah! I'm really digging the template/theme of this blog. It's simple,
    yet effective. A lot of times it's very hard to get that "perfect balance" between usability and visual appeal. I must say you've done a
    awesome job with this. In addition, the blog loads extremely fast for me
    on Opera. Excellent Blog!

  10. My developer is trying to convince me to move to .
    net from PHP. I have always disliked the idea because of the costs.
    But he's tryiong none the less. I've been using Movable-type on numerous websites for about a year and am anxious about switching to another platform.

    I have heard great things about blogengine.net. Is there a way
    I can transfer all my wordpress content into it? Any help would be greatly appreciated!
