Well, I experimented with a couple of other blogs and I think it's time to return to blogger.com. In comparison there are a couple of things that stand out as to why:
1. spaces.msn.com never got my blog listed in MSN search
2. I can allow people to comment on my blog that are not members
3. I can modify my template how I choose meaning I am not put into a pre-determined template
4. I can post this on my website rather than having to use another server
5. works equally well in Firefox and IE
6. I can mod the time of my post - handy when I've been lazy about goings on....
What am I losing?
1. gleem from MSN Messenger when I've posted - I can overcome this by updating links to this site from my MSN spaces site
2. automatic blogging from messenger - not a huge feature anyway for me. I will need to experiment with the email blog capability of blogger.com
3. not much else....
So, let's see how this goes. First step is to copy over content from the other blog...here I go...
Do you think it's possible to create an RSS feed into spaces so it's auto published? If that is true you could create a new blog entry automatically in spaces based on your blogger.com entry.
Pretty much the same reasons I left msn.spaces.
