1,000,000,000,000 URLs (That's 1 Trillion!)

Google hits One Trilion unique URLs!!! That's huge! They have an intersting article titled "We knew the web was big.

I'm proud to supply 0.0000002 percent of those pages! (At least I think I did the math right).

Migrating to WordPress (?)

So I'm tempted to migrate to WordPress (from Movable Type) I think I've got it all figured out on how to even retain my current URLs (as crummy as they are) so that I don't have a bunch of broken links.

One of my worries is right now a lot of my pages score pretty good in Google searches, amazingly good sometimes, especially since my site doesn't rank super high anyways, and I'm afraid of losing that rank. I'm not sure if it's just that I built my pages well? or maybe my meta tags or if the structure of the page helps? or what? It's just always done pretty good so I don't mess with it.

What will I lose if I convert? What might I gain?

The other thought is to leave my Movable Type site alone, delete the index page and use WordPress from now on but have links to the old pages. I'd need to keep the MT software so that comments and search would still work (I'd modify the WP search pages to say "you only searched the new site, click here to search for old stuff"). But I'd still have to maintain updates and such on the old site and check for spam and more....

Hmmm.... I'm either talking myself out of keeping the old one separate or possibly not migrating at all. I'm not sure which...

I felt like they were giving it away. That's really really sad...
