# Is CodeBetter.Com to become the new .NETWeblogs?

By Roy Osherove January 28, 2005 In [Blogging](https://osherove.com/blog/category/blogging), [Community](https://osherove.com/blog/category/community)

**Historical article** · Originally published January 28, 2005; technical details may be outdated.

[Darrell Norton](http://codebetter.com/blogs/darrell.norton/) is one of the founders of the newly created [CodeBetter.Com](http://codebetter.com/blogs/) \- a blogging community for better coders and developers. That also means that [Darrell's most excellent blog has moved here](http://codebetter.com/blogs/darrell.norton/) .

So, is "CodeBetter.Com" the new ".NetWeblogs"(now called weblogs.asp.net)?  weblogs.asp.net's main feed is quite a "trashy" place these days. It's like a big market - you can find pretty much anything if you look long enough. That also means it gets harder and harder to find great focused content. That's what /NetWeblogs was all about at first.

Which leads me to contemplate moving my blog to CodeBetter.Com. I mean, that's a great domain name! I wonder how hard ti would be to import/export all my posts from my current blog.
