 * I was using wordpress.com but now have the full wordpress installed on my own
   server space. How do I import the old blog into my new space?
 * Many thanks!

 * After logging into my own wordpress.com account, I can’t see a way.
 * I understand this is frustrating as you no doubt have a few posts.
 * Great to hear you’ve got your own WordPress install now though 🙂
 * Someone like podz may be able to help you though. Good luck! And sorry I can’t
   provide an answer other than I don’t know if it can actually be done. 🙁

 * I have no idea how.
    This was posted here a few days ago and the rss feeds were
   suggested but that’s a poor solution.
 * Use the feedback link in the wp.com blog – there has to be an answer for this
   as more and more people will do this.

 * There’s a post or so in the FAQ (at .com) which indicates “they’re looking into
   a personal backup solution”. The last date for that seems to have been in October
   though….

 * Is there no ability to back up a wordrpess.com blog? If that were the case, you
   could grab your data and just do whatever pleases you.
 * One possibility that I would consider is the use of wget (a grabber) to recursively
   go through your blog and saving all posts to your hard-drive. They can then be
   assembled and imported to your personal domain more rapidly.

 * Nope – no backups, no access to data, no plugins, not much in the way of themes.
 * Wget might work…. hadn’t thought of that (though I don’t have anything I want
   particularly anyway, but may help out someone else!)

 * hchan:
    Have you tried to use the RSS importer yet? It is not a solution for 
   ALL the old post (at your wp.com), but it is an idea as a help for the future.
 * podz:
    One of my wp blog has entries less than 1000. I’ve tried to set the RSS
   Feed number to 1000 posts for a sync (sync…import to another wp blog), but it
   seems that the max output of it is 150. Any idea?
