Do any of you have a weblog? If so who do you write with (i.e. blogger, xanga, modblog)... I'm interested to see what is everone's personal favorite weblog provider.

I use xanga
 
blogger is pretty good, and I even have a handy widget that lets me post to it, or I can email a special address and it posts.

I wish iWeb would work with blogger, or atleast let you publish to something other then .mac, I'm not paying ~ $120 a year for it.
 
greatdevourer.net/blog, which reminds me - I really ought to update the sig

EDIT: Ooops, forgot to answer the question. Wordpress 2.0.1 on Dreamhost
 
I'm also on blogger and find it quite nice and flexible. It also seem to rate my blog unbelievably high on google! Anyone else noticed this?

Dude, I'm sorry, but I have to say this. Xanga is so 8th grade. So is Livejournal. If you're not going to DIY, Typepad and Blogger are the only blogging hosts which, if used, will allow you to be taken seriously by anyone over the age of 14.

Definitely going to agree on the statement about Xanga and LiveJournal...I wouldn't put them in the category of blogs, personally, though I suppose it could be argued they are...

As for myself, I'm still contemplating: https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/177775/
 
I used blogger before I used xanga... I liked blogger but I thought xanga was easier to customize (I have no idea about html and web design so maybe blogger would be more customizable)

I'm looking into a free weblog provider...wordpress seems good but I am hoping for more ideas.

If I were to pay for webspace I would pay for a .mac account to utilize iWeb
 
A Small Orange + WordPress. Have also used Blogger in the past, and it's very good. Have also hosted with A2 Web Hosting and they were pretty good also.
 
I'm liking the look of word press... amacgenius I love your layout. I would assume you designed that yourself. I have no experience with web design whatsoever so designing a website is sort of out of the picture with me...are there any additional layouts/themes for wordpress on the web?
