I've been trying out all kinds of blogging platforms - Blogger, Squarespace, Wordpress.com, Typepad, and probably others I can't remember right now. Although I haven't tried the self-hosted Wordpress, I do plan to at some point, just not right now.
I actually do like all the blogging platforms, but none are 100% perfect. For a number of reasons, Blogger is the right choice for me. It fits everything I need right now.
Here's the three main reasons I choose Blogger:

Here's the three main reasons I choose Blogger:
- Cost. I don't have enough funds right now to sink into anything at all such as yearly fees, hosting or anything else.
- Time. I have even less of that. No time for a learning curve whatsoever. Too much going on in my life and I need to get down to business!
- Google Sidewiki. This may not make sense right now, but I can see amazing value in using Sidewiki to post to our blogs on Blogger. As time goes on, I believe this will get clearer to more people.
Typepad is nice, but their templates are not easily customizable at all. After much wrangling and struggling to get everything to work, I finally threw in the towel. I simply don't have time to struggle with anything.
Which blogging platform do you use? I'd love to hear your thoughts and insights on the various blogging platforms.
