I know this has been asked before but I never paid much attention because I didn't think I would want to start a blog.  However, with this HM/adventure we're about to depart upon, I think blogging it would be the best way to keep track of everything.I know a bunch of you have blogs so what's the easiest, user friendly one?

    I asked this question on the International board when I first started mine, and most people either used blogger or wordpress. I decided to go with Wordpress, and I really like it! It is user friendly, has nice layouts, and is just easy to use! Good luck deciding! If you want to see mine for an example, check it out:[url]jenniferanddaveindoha.wordpress.com[/url] I really need to update it....

    Both Blogger and Wordpress are really easy to use.  I had debated on switching mine to Wordpress, but you can't customize unless you pay, and I didn't really like any of their templates - so I'm still with Blogger.But you won't have any issues using either of them.

    I've only ever used blogger.  Good luck keeping up with your HM blog, it does get to be a chore.  If you can't post a blog every day, what I would recommend it uploading the photos from that day onto your PC and have a folder marked with the date...this helped us alot to figure out where we took random pictures.

    I like wordpress because it tracks your blog traffic.  I hate that it's not customizable really at all and don't care for any of the layouts too much.  If blogger had the in depth stats that wordpress has (maybe they do and I just don't realize it) then I'd probably switch.

    Apparently, it is also easy to switch from Blogger to Wordpress, not sure about the other way around. I thought wordpress had a good selection of layouts. Or maybe it just did not bother me that much and I picked one that I liked. They seemed pretty customizable to me!
