I just discovered another fun, easy way to spew forth my geniusness to the world. There's something about setting up a new blog/journal/website that's fun and exciting. It gives you a fresh start. I like to test out different hosts to see what their software will do for me. How easy is it to set up? What kind of options are there? Are there some fresh layouts available? Maybe I should go into graphic design and really learn how to do this stuff instead of just fumbling around and coming up with a site that is just passable.
Here's a list of some of the sites I've fiddled with. I know there are more but it’s late and my memory is shot. I’ve looked at Vox, Moveable Type, MSN Pages, etc. and may try using them in the future. I’d really just like to find the best two or three blog sites that will meet my needs and then get rid of the rest.
