Nibuca called me out a while back about my blog comment situation . Since I was blogging really just for myself, I didn’t think about all two of you reading.
My number one requirement… MUST BE FREE … and minimal of fuss.
I tried wordpress.com first. I liked it. The tag bubbles, the clean user interface, and the web stats. But I was having trouble with adding the features that I wanted. Things I felt were simple and general was going against wordpress’ free features. After getting a generic message from customer service, with no time line when they would be added, I decided to try blogger.
Off to blogger.com. I get categories instead of the tags that I am use too. *shrug* I never made sense anyway. The dashboard has too much information. But once you start to manage your blog the user interface becomes clean and easy to use. I added sitemeter to get some of the web stats for the fun. With a little searching I was able to add every feature I was looking for and take it out for a spin.
Here we are.
…
Cause I don’t know if they work. Comments anyone?
I'm partial to WordPress, and even moreso to self-hosted. That said: This design is very, very nice: Clean, simple, easy to follow. Just one request: Enable the "Choose an identity" option that allows us self-hosters to put in a name and URL (for comments).
ReplyDeleteI LOVE BLOGGER PEOPLE.

ReplyDeleteWhile I'm spamming you. Which is only because I'm bored and so incredibly happy you are on blogger. I wanted to say everything looks like it works according to me.
