Eating my own dog food, just imported 2800 notes into Micro.blog. Overall went really well. A couple things could be improved for large archives, like better search on the web.

@manton 2800 hundred notes from where? Are you talking in the notes function of Micro.blog?
@timapple For the last decade I've taken notes as little files with a text editor, usually Ulysses. I switched making new notes to Micro.blog earlier this year, and this import essentially brings in my old archive so that everything is in one place.
@manton gotcha, did it import however you had them organized..folders and such? Or just into one folder?
@timapple Just one folder. Micro.blog has a flat list of notes per notebook. So you could create multiple notebooks and import a folder one at a time, but I just have everything together and use search and what's recent.
@manton I've been using micro.blog notes with my little client and its been working out really well. Thanks for adding the notes feature.
@manton Was this using your own blog archive format?
@jeremycherfas No, in this case just a folder of individual Markdown files that I zipped up. Although having it be portable in a blog archive would be good too.
