    I have a google blog and I was hoping to move from google to wordpress, Is it possible to transfer my content over to here, or do I need to start from scratch?

    I wasn't aware Google offered blogging. Do you mean Blogger, which now is integrated with your Google account? If so, WordPress can import from Blogger.

    Blogger has changed a bit since I used it back around 2002. So you need to make sure you follow the procedure to the letter so you don't lose any of your posts or comments:

    Here are some links to people who have done this (successfully I would imagine):
