Start a blog

Question

Hello, calling anyone internet savvy:

I'd like to start a blog, mostly daily posts and a few photos. I've no experience of this. Can anyone point me in the right direction to start... Blogger?? Wordpress??? I'm looking for something pretty idiot proof and free :-)

Thanks!

Heya G, It depends who your community is. If it's family and friends, then really any service is fine. Other services tend to attract certain types, subjects and communities. Wordpress is entirely open source, so people who are interested in those type of issues like the publishing, future of the open internet, etc. tend to publish there. Tumblr tends to attract more of an art crowd. I know a bunch of fashion people on blogger. They're all pretty easy to use. I like the visuals of tumblr, but my politics lay with wordpress. Good luck!
