Export WordPress to Tumblr?
I used WordPress for 5 years and I really want to import old posts into my Tumblr account so that they can co-exist as one. Solutions exist, but they are huge headaches and litter the Dashboard with several hundred posts.
I love Tumblr for its ease of use as a platform, but data portability is really important. Users own their content, and should have complete control.
So, how would you export WordPress to Tumblr?
UPDATE:
I appreciate Marco’s response, and understand this is not part of Tumblr’s mission. But, I feel like I have a responsibility not to leave stray accounts elsewhere on the Internet. I want my stuff organized. I don’t want to feel like an astronaut leaving space junk.
The best solution I’ve found, and what I’m currently working with, is Tumblrize. An update was just released today (possibly due to my input?!) so that old posts retain their metadata for dates, so they slide into your Tumblr archives correctly (they still annoyingly show up as recent posts in the Dashboard).

I wouldn’t. Exports only work well between nearly identical products. These aren’t. Host a static archive copy of your WP blog somewhere.
