After ironing out some wrinkles relevant to directory structure and memory tuning allocation to avoid PHP memory errors, we have successfully migrated our few blogs (rather how-to articles) to b2evolution open source blogging software.

We made use of Daniel's Movable Type importer for the character content migration although we later had to (re)create the categories that somehow were not created in their entirety.

Blogging software is but one aspect of a full collaboration suite for larger enterprises --where the creativity and mind resources of your human elements are your most important asset. For a larger enterprise, were IBM DB2 and WebSphere products are the norm, we might have installed IBM's Lotus Connections --the full suite of enterprise social software.

IBM Lotus Connections provides:

• Activities so that you can organize your work and collaborate with others in a shared workspace.
• Dogear enables an user to save, organize, and share bookmarks to online resources.
• Profiles allow the potential identification of the most qualified individual(s) in your organization for a given task.
• Communities will let your organization's human elements natural tendency to associate by common interests, including professional responsibilities --and potentially aggregate common experiential background.
• Blogs of course, IBM Lotus Connections has blogging software, of which b2evolution is an excellent paradigm.

If your organization is an small or medium business (SMB ), do not be discouraged by what is available for the (larger) enterprise sector and --up to now-- unreachable to you due to the IBM WebSphere prerequisites. All of the above will be made available to the SMB sector as an Software as a Service (SaaS) offering called BlueHouse.

Please, contact us for an complimentary consultation when you are ready to unleash the creativity of your most important asset in your SMB and/or enterprise organization. IBM Lotus Connections software and Metztli IT just might unleash the organic growth of your organization's raw mind power into an structured form accessible to everyone. After all, the human element is your most important asset.
