Blogspot?

Hey, does anyone here use Blogspot extensively? I have one here, though obviously I haven't used it much so far. I'm toying with the idea of using it as a public, fandom-only blog, but I'm not familiar enough with it to have any clue how to best use it. I mean, without flists, how do people know you have posted? How do they read you? It annoys me when I'm completely clueless. *grumps* I did just realize that Semagic would allow me to cross-post to Blogspot, which would simplify the posting part.

Anyway, I'm not planning to stop posting here (or IJ or JF or...you get the picture) or anything; I'll continue posting most fandom stuff publically and most personal stuff flocked (except when I'm an idiot who FORGETS TO LOCK THE PERSONAL STUFF ARGH.)

*petspetspets* Not to worry, sweetie.

I agree LJ is the easiest journal to use -- it's far more user-friendly and conducive to communication between the blog writer and commenters than other blogs are. I just feel the need to branch out a little, I guess.

The best thing to do then, IMO, is to get your own domain and host it yourself. You have a lot more control over the blog that way and a much stronger online presence.
