As above, what's a good site to start blogging on?
Never done it and know nothing about it, just fancy promulgating my ideas and experiences to the world.
Feel free to suggest a name for it such as "spoon guy" š

Blogger is good if you have a lot of Google accounts/apps & not being at all au fait with IT I found it more intuitive than WordPress
Wow, haterz and po faced in 2 posts, good to know your team's response time is meeting targets.
Is it so bad that a LBS person pokes fun at some customers (who clearly can't be identified, nor can the shop in question) on a bike forum?
As for the bullying comments, find me some evidence from recent years please? Oh dear, you can't. Well done for digging up the past and not letting someone move on, what a great way to live.
Anyway, on topic, I want to do text and pics and have a few different categories and subcategories, I'll check out the suggestions, thanks.

"My love of Curried Otter and other musings" by Tarka DhAl
Like rocketblog (bollocks to effing about with caps lock).
I'm sure there is something suitable from the lyrics of this that you could use?
"Spoonman"Feel the rhythm with your hands
Steal the rhythm while you can, spoonman
Speak the rhythm on your own
Speak the rhythm all alone, spoonmanSpoonman, come together with your hands
Save me, I'm together with your plan
Save meAll my friends are Indians
All my friends are brown and red, spoonman
All my friends are skeletons
They beat the rhythm with their bones, spoonmanFeel the rhythm with your hands
Steal the rhythm while you can, spoonmanThank you, good night people
Just from a cursory glance I can see spoons, working with your hands, and two potential euphimisms for masturbation.
Oh, I thought STW was your blog and we were all merely commenting on it.

Oi!
Good job I don't blog. as such.
Wordpress or Blogger. Both will stand out as Wordpress or Blogger to any user. Never really sussed the best way to put pics in Blogger from Picasa. Never really used Wordpress at all.
I'll throw in a bit of a wildcard, [url= http://postach.io/ ]postach.io[/url] which is what I use. You write your posts in evernote and they auto-sync to your blog which, for me, is really nice. The biggest downside is that there are a handful of themes but if you want something custom then you need a github account and to be comfortable with jinja2 templating.
find me some evidence from recent years please
So you dont deny it and still show no remorse š
You could use the "I was following orders" excuse š

FWIW, I use (and like) Blogger.
Thanks, some good ones there. I like "Hitting Big" š

I have shown remorse (you may have missed that) and discussed things with TJ (if thats what you are on about)...do you feel I owe you a special apology?

do you feel I owe you a special apology?Why do you owe me a special apology? This is about the most we have ever conversed. You wanted suggestions for a blog name and seemed to be slightly miffed that not all of them were that complimentary to you. You could be accused of naivete or attention seeking I dont think you are naive š

Should represent your content, really. Mate of mine has a food and drink blog called something akin to "Sybaritic Warblings" which I always thought was great.
I think this covers everything you've asked for:

another Blogger fan here = simple to use & plenty of themes, plus it integrates well if you have an android phone & use google.
I'm guessing that Wordpress probably would suit if you're more of an Apple user.

No, you alone called me a bully, lacking remorse.
And please don't make serious points the hide them behind smilies, it's just passive aggressive.
Anyway I'm waiting for the troll of the moment to appear to flame me.

Haven't read beyond the first 10 posts (saw the way it was going) but if you're looking to get picked up by Google, it's Blogger all the way. Tag your photos, alt tag them, give them titles - all these options are available when you upload images and will bring the googlejuice pouring.
If you don't care who sees your content beyond Uri Geller and the rest of the Sheffield Cutlery-Mongers, then WordPress looks much prettier and has a good range of template sites to choose from.
Blogger. Just blogger if you want to be seen.

Sorry but this is a complete load of toss, if anything WP has more advanced SEO plugins than Blogger. If you're just tagging images (which you can do in WP) you're barely scratching the surface.
OP, have a look at both and use whatever you feel comfortable with, if you want a simple blog then Blogger will do that, if you can see your self further down the line wanting more (a complete website?) use WP.
LOL MrSmith, I gave you something to whine about, and you're complaining?

Ahem. Google owns Blogger. Cough. Not that it would EVER give priority to one of its own concerns of course.

Anyhow, I use Wordpress for lots - my [url= http://www.kinetics-online.co.uk/ ]business site[/url], [url= http://catchingphotons.co.uk/blog/ ]urbex site[/url] and a few others. It's very customisable and Jetpack for it does lots of SEO integration stuff.
I got a mod email overnight for suggesting a name involving the fact that, actually, it wasn't a spoon at all. I still can't think of any way to put it politely. Sorry mods. Sorry Al.
I used "it wasn't a spoon" - no warning yet!
Well you have only got yourselves to blame!
