[Question] Blog

Not sure if this is the right section, was contemplating where to put it so I chose this area. Anyways I wanted to create a blog, but was wondering the options. I've heard about Blogger and BlogThis (I think it was..) and wasn't sure of any others. Do any of you use blogs? And if so which one do you use? Would I be able to set up a regular blog, and then sometime in the near future, when I buy a domain and hosting for a site Im creating, would I be able to redirect it there and keep it on that domain. Also, would I be able to add a custom design, like design my website, and then make a new one with the same theme? Because I saw it on Blogger you can add your domain to it, but can you sign up regulary and then switch it to the direct blog? THANKS for you help and I hope all of you can reply with good sources. Also, talk about YOUR opinions on blogs. Do you like them? If so state why or why not.

I have my own blog. I use a CMS called Subdreamer which is pretty damn cool and use the news section as the blog. I used to use a different program called WordPress but it wasn't very good as a whole site, just as a blog. I rarely post personal things on my blog (such as stuff about my girlfriend, real life friends etc) because I prefer to keep my real life seperate from what I do on the computer, so I just post things about technology, school and other such stuff

i've contemplated it back and forth, i'm throwing some ideas around now, but if i go through with it, i'm going to build my own back end.

Wow, pretty good stuff on there. Your dads in the Military, if so best wishes.

I used blogger havnt updated in ages, www.ryanraplee.com

I don't have a blog, i think they are kinda pointless tbh. Check out www.hotscripts.com they should have a few scripts that might be of use!

There was a good one, that I couldnt figure out how to install lol.

MovableType? I can remember struggling to install that first time I used it.

Been a while since I've visited, but I also use Movable Type for my blog(s). The only one I have online now is my flight logbook, www.meltedpixel.com/flying
