Blogging

[controversiaster]

I am thinking of having a blog online but I don't know which site is the best. I have been seeing blogspot.com a lot but is it that great? Or are there better ones out there?

I need some advice on this

[Zannn]

Well I use blogspot, its easy to use and fast... its not great but if you don't want to code your own web page/blog, then I recommend it...

There's also Xanga, which is pretty much the Asian thing when it comes to blogging, haha.

Also, Movable Type, not sure if that's just software or whether you can sign up and just begin blogging with it, but it's quite powerful/decent.

What sort of blog did you have in mind, though? I mean, without wishing to complicate a simple question, there is of course photoblogs, and YouTube is probably best for video blogs. I guess some people treat Deviant Art as a photoblog too. But I suppose most sites specialize in just text blogging and such.

blogspot is one of the best sites for blogs the custom made skins they have at blogskins.com are truly beautiful, if you want an example of one, see the link in my sig

I use wordpress as well, it has a clean professional style to it which i like looking at and you can import posts from almost any site

Livejournal is better, u Qan loQ your post or maQe it private, if you want to. (Y)

That is something blogger.com does not have.

Please, choose livejournal

and it allows non-members to sign in as guest and Qomment.

ThanQ u. (Y)

[controversiaster]

[vlam]

well, i have a long history in blogging... i started when lj was just being arised, it was even invite-only back then (i still have this 'early adopted' account). since then i used to have many blogs on different services - blogspot/blogger, myspace, facebook, msn spaces, some local russian servers, and even such rarities as orkut and wallop.

for the time being i have a personal blog for general use, a personal personal blog for closest friends, and several themed public blogs (software/hardware, models, photographers, ad campaigns, etc).

[alien777]

I want to see it!!!!

[ricardamanutd]

I have 3 in blogger, 3 in wordpress and 1 in lj. I am just too lazy to work my way around lj, but i like working the codes for blogger, very satisfying to see the end result. I wanna see your blog think it will be very nice

I see you tagged my blog Thanks

@ Vlam: Whoa, that is quite a lot but I have a themed one too. I have a deviantArt account and I have a blog there (as anyone would do) just to talk briefly about my life and also about the photos I've taken
