Migrating blogger to wordpress! Suggestions required.

Hi,
I am in process of migrating www.gaurishsharma.com from blogger to wordpress.


*For Theme i am thinking of choosing this. not final yet so open to suggestions

*Which moving i want to preserver backlinks, as URL structure of wordpress is different from blogger. example
Old url
Code:
*www.gaurishsharma.com/2009/01/catch-hot-deals-at-ebay-india-while-it.html

new URL
Code:
*lgaurishsharma.com/2009/01/catch-hot-deals-at-ebay-india-while-it-lasts/

Wordpress can have the same URL structure, I mean ending with .html - if that is what you meant.

And there is option to handle all broken links in WP.

And theme looks nice :)

Are you moving to wordpress.com or your own self hosted blog ?
If the former, then you need to spend 10$ (Rs. 500) to upgrade to a feature which enables you to use your own domain name.
