I'm not a very big Xanga fan for many reasons, so I chose to host my own blog using Movable Type. Yet, the reality is that many of my friends do use Xanga, and just read everything through Xanga'a built-in aggregator, rarely if ever checking out other non-Xanga sites.
For a while, I was cutting and pasting entries in my real blog to my Xanga site. However, I soon grew too lazy. I wanted some automatic way of mirroring entries to Xanga, like I've seen a friend of a friend do. So, being the lazy nerd that I am, I figured out the protocol that Xanga used, and hacked together a Perl script to do it for me.
So, to all you out there in Xanga land, I am back for good! =)
And, if you're interested in using the script yourself, check out the project page. Enjoy!

I definitely want to try this out!
