The game’s afoot!

Some months have passed, and I am finally starting this “real blog” thing. The first order of business? Choose a provider, of course! The two contenders are WordPress and Blogger.

Impressions so far:

• WordPress is faster – so far, noticeably so. This might have to do with the php back end rather than pure html that blogger seems to post.
• Blogger, unlike WordPress, allows you to edit any of the HTML/CSS of your posts. WordPress charges $15 for the priveledge. Not cool.
• WordPress interprets any html in standard editing mode, as does Blogger (which also proofs your html. Excellent.
• WordPress also has categories – something that I would find very useful given what I’m going to blog about – and something that I don’t think Blogger has.
