So, this is a sort of spin off of the myspace/facebook thread... I'm sure some of you blog and I'm just wondering where? I have an old blogger account, but I"m not really thrilled with it. Its a bit on the slow side (at least for me on dial up), and just.. yeah. Seems clunky. In anycase I'm looking to start a new blog somewhere else and am highly undecided. I'm thinking Xanga or Vox atm, but am totally open to suggestions. Are there any good open solutions??

you could host a blog yourself, if you like. There's Joola(spell?), Drupal, WordPress. Out of the choices I know, I would choose Drupal.

What about for the folks who either don't have a domain or don't want to purchase one?

Yeah, I don't have the money to pay for webspace anywhere, so am looking for a free web-based solution. Multiply looks interesting... whats your experience with it?

If you just wait a bit for the "Free Social" Website on CafeLinux.org...or other things to come very soon. ;)

If you can't wait I find Multiply full featured, and you have complete access over the controls of who you want to see your content.

It is quite nice all though admittedly I don't give it quite enough attention.

To busy to blog honestly.
