Guest Posted April 23, 2008 Share Posted April 23, 2008 i use my own web space but some people on here use a site called vox, maybe one of them can give you more advice. look forward to reading it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christian Posted April 23, 2008 Share Posted April 23, 2008 I use blogspot and find it really easy to post. It takes awhile to get used to it, same as anything new I guess, but find it fun posting and not a chore at all! many people use VOX which I tried and couldn't get into https://www.blogger.com/start http://www.vox.com/ Take a look at both and see what you think.

Snowy Posted April 23, 2008 Share Posted April 23, 2008 I use Blogger, for some reason Vox doesn't always load on either of my PCs. I'm a bit of a technonumpty and this one is easy enough to use: Blogger Dashboard Cross posted with Christian - his link to Blogger is better than the one I found!

The Anti Chicken Posted April 23, 2008 Share Posted April 23, 2008 I have used many and I prefer Vox because it gives you a lot of flexiblity in how you display the pictures within your text. The best I've found for this and this was an important part of blogging for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
