Blogger is Good

Of course, this is coming from someone who came from trying to blog on Xanga. Not a good blogging tool! Let's look at some highlights of Blogger make it better than other competitors.

  • There is no "premium" version of Blogger. This means that the features you usually have to pay to get on other platforms, such as access to one's code, are integrated into the one solid version of Blogger.
  • It's free. It is a free service. What makes it better than other free services?
  • There are no ads. None. Unless the user puts them in there himself! (don't do that).
  • Lots of options.

Things that would make Blogger better:

  • Make it easier to have a picture for your header (though you can do this if you follow a tutorial!)
  • Be able to format your comments in "Peek-a-boo" format. Meaning if you click on the thing that says "comments" they just come out on the website and if you click it again they go back.

I just thought of something. In the past week I submitted a blog post to Digg, created a Technorati profile, and submitted a blog feed to Pingoat. I how someone in History would react if I said that?

dude you can completely customize your blog appearance on blogger, which is great for a web-based service. It can even be used as a content management system.
