Furor 0 Report post Posted February 19, 2005 Nice strategy. I mean when people see the "error" messages on sites they usually visit; they get furious. This would be one nice way to curb that problem. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Or you can try something like Moveable Type or Greymatter, both of which I've heard are quite good. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

For now, I trust Google. 52017[/snapback] bloglines is not a blog service provider, it is a online aggregator, means you can store multiple feeds in you account and check them out everyday, there are many client software now doing this kind of thing but I like the online one best because you could go anywhere using any computer and still be able to check you favorate feeds. There are a couple of online aggregators like bloglines, feedster, I found bloglines is the best so far. For personal blog, blogger is a nice choice for starters, but it lacks features and you can do very limited things in terms of design or hacking. The best blogging service I found is wordpress, however you do need a server supports sql and php to set up a wordpress blog, that is where Xisto comes in. Now, Xisto+wordpress, pretty impressive and powerful combination for a personal blog. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
