Hey, guess what? I hate you!

I have to say that I am not impressed with this Blogger site. It won't let me update unless I open the link in a new window, and I am not allowed to comment on anyone else's blog unless I try a gazillion times and/or create a new google account everytime. I don't know what the hold up is. Additionally, I cannot find the customization feature that allows me to cross-link blogs. This is annoying.

Moreover, I highly dislike the fact that this site isn't LiveJournal; it doesn't have a place for you to write what music you are listening to, your current mood, or where you are. What does Blogger have to offer, then? I don't know. I really don't know. And even the domain names aren't any easier to remember or look any sleeker than those of LJ: ___.blogspot.com vs. ____.livejournal.com.

I will keep this up, though, if only for the sibling unity factor. Maybe I'll adapt; hopefully I won't.

Hey - nice work starting a new blog.

I know the blogspot format isn't so great. You really need to mess with the settings.

To add links to other blogs you have to go "add page element". I think I just selected a list of link and named the list "Other blogs"

Also, you should make it so that anyone can post comments without needed to sign up.

Good luck!

I agree the format is not the easiest...it's more for the Blogger Newbie. Which works, for moi.
