Does anybody know?

If there is a way to import an external blog onto LJ?

I'd really like to put my Emerald Arts stuff on here but I only have so much time. Stupid proliferation of awesome websites.

Let me know if you know ;)

Nope, but thanks for trying ;)

My blog is external: www.emeraldarts.blogspot.com so different rules apply.

With blogspot, I don't think there's any way to get it to automatically repost things in this journal, unless you can google around and find some software that works as a client for both sites (no idea if any exists, though). Content management systems like Wordpress can do it, but you'd have to redo your Emerald Arts blog completely and find your own hosting for it.

The only thing you can do is set up a syndicated feed, which will appear as a separate account here. Except that you need a paid or permanent account to do that. If you know someone who has one, get them to enter the URL of your Atom feed (which should be http://emeraldarts.blogspot.com/feeds/posts/default) at the bottom of this page. :) Everyone will have to add that feed to their friends lists to see your posts, but it's better than nothing.
