For those of you with a blog, which do you like better?
WordPress by far - it has a learning curve, but there are many tutorials that can teach you how to use it. I have self-hosted though, not the free version. I've used blogger before also, but found it very limiting and my site with it didn't rank well.
I don't have any experience with Wordpress but I have had a blog on Blogger for years and it is easy and intuitive to use. Plus, I get hits on my articles and make a few (very few) dollars off the pay-per-click revenue.
If you have to choose between the two, I would say wordpress.org (the self-hosted CMS) is a lot better than blogger. But if you are picking between wordpress.com and blogger, I'd suggest that you choose blogger.
I've always found Blogger easier to use when you're just starting off in the world of blogging. However, if you're wanting a blog with more layout options, better widgets, and one that stands out in searches, Wordpress is the superior platform.
