Blogger update

Well, it's Memorial Day weekend and while I'd love to be at the shore, at a picnic, or even attending high school reunion events, as it turns out, I'll probably spend most of the weekend working on blogs and websites.

I'm starting to get a little more sense of how to navigate through Blogger and Wordpress. Both have Dashboard, or home page views, from which you can modify your page. Both also give you the option to edit your posts. My only previous firsthand experience with blogging was through Myspace, where you could edit your posts, so I was glad to see that option here.

There are some similarities between these blogs and the blog option on Myspace, but the major difference is that Blogger and Wordpress seem to have a lot more options and are obviously more blog-focused. On Myspace, the blog is just one aspect of the page, which in many cases may feature all sorts of images, videos, glittery things, quizzes, lengthy "About Me" sections, and long strings of comments posted by friends, with just a list of links to the blogs. On here, the blog is the focus of the page.
