Blogger or WordPress.com?

Was having time debate with several of the participants here in my workshop on which blogging platform has better usability and functionality. Of course, I was pushing for WordPress.com because of two things — scale and upgradability. However, others are saying Blogger is better. I haven’t used Blogger in like 4 years now and yes I know that it has improved since then. What do you think?

  1. Я бы еще кое-что добавил, но по сути сказано практически все.

    Google’s servers are strong enough to handle demanding loads, that’s why I’ve chosen Blogger.

    I have to agree that WordPress is great, but if you lack the technical expertise to deal with the complicated stuff, stick with Blogger.

    Also, Google Apps Mail syncs perfectly with Blogger. If you use the nameservers of your external hosting site (where you installed WordPress), instead of your Registrar’s, chances are Google Apps Mail won’t work because you need to use the name servers of your registrar’s. If you use Blogger, on the other hand, you won’t need to change the name servers, meaning you can both run Google Apps mail and Blogger at the same time.

    And who said that Blogger themes are inferior to those of WordPress’s? Look at my blog and see for yourself what a little bit of tinkering can do to your interface.

    been using blogger ever-since due to two main reasons: 1.) i’m a big google fan, and 2.) i tried to monetize my blogs.

    but honestly, for me blogger is very technical and the way i saw it here, it seems that WP is such.

    right here and then, i gotta create my WP to check what i’ve been missing!
