b5Media Acquisition Contract

Posted by: Aaron Brazell

Hot on the heels of “the Textpattern to WordPress importer”:http://www.technosailor.com/textpattern-to-wordpress-import-script/, I’ve landed a relatively high profile job of writing a Nucleus CMS importer for “b5Media”:http://www.b5media.com, the little blog network that is far too big beyond it’s infancy. On November 9th, b5 “went public with it’s merger plans with About Weblogs”:http://www.b5media.com/b5media-merges-with-about-weblogs/, the all female blog network run by Shai Coggins.

I’m excited about this proposal because, frankly, since b5Media’s launch, I have looked on envious of Jeremy, Duncan and Darren as they made this thing happen. With deference to the blog network I am a part of, “Blue Fish Network”:http://www.bluefishnetwork.co.uk, b5 is one of those networks that just works and works well. Three, and now four with the addition of Shai, high profile (yet useful, unlike the “A List”) and extremely effective business people, bloggers and people are making a great thing happen. I’m really happy for them. Too bad Technosailor wasn’t more of a niche blog or I’d be scraping to join the network.

At any rate, I’m happy to do what I do for them. As the new AW weblogs are migrated from Nucleus to WordPress, they will become more officially part of the b5 network and will see the network grow even further.

Thanks for allowing me to be a part, guys.

      Congrats and all. BFN could never compete on a known people and money terms, but hope you're still happy to be with us :)

      By the way, can you change your Blue Fish link to point to us, not the design company.
