Google Offers Blog Transport

Today I stumbled upon this article which explains that Google has released a new open-source project called Google Blog converters that are designed to aid in moving a blog from one service to another. The scripts are written in Python and currently support conversion between the export formats of LiveJournal, MovableType, WordPress, and Google’s own Blogger service. This means that shouls I ever want or need to I could export this blog, which is written with WordPress, to any of the other services currently available. Though I am currently not proficient in Python, this would give me an excellent reason to learn it should the need arise.
