self-hosted blogger vs. wordpress

I hope so Tart!

And yes Mr.Blue, excellent point, it is the reason that got me thinking. If I wanted to get serious I couldn't depend on blogger, even though I had it hosted myself. And sometimes it doesn't even load correctly(blogger), you have great inspiration for a post and you can't login! My first thoughts when starting to use it were: "It's the google thing, so maybe you get more google hits by using their thing". But it didn't do much extra...

Getting to know wordpress now, and I'm pretty much loving it. Already used a plug-in for dofollow allowing the dofollow trackbacks, but the plug-in system also works pretty easily. End of the week I'll put one of my other two blogs over to wordpress, and then I think my third one also when that's done.

I see a lot of good threads from boogie about trackbacks, tut's etc, but they're all from 2005. Is the blogging activity decreasing that much around here?
