First Post as a Blogger Blog

I am in the process of moving my web sites from WordPress over to Blogger. This is the ffirst post written in Blogger. If nothing else using Blogger will save money as I will not have to pay in order to have a custom style sheet or a custom domain name.

In terms of features both Blogger and WordPress seem fairly equal - though WordPress may be better for heavy duty bloggers. Blogger does allow, however, the inclusion of more things such as inline frames ao that in the end Blogger may win because of its flexibility.
