Why Blogger?

I chose Blogger.com as the host for my assignments for its ease of use and array of customization options which I found fun and motivational. From a quick preview of the site I could see Blogger served my purposes for the class. I could easily setup a page using predefined templates to get up-and-running quickly and efficiently. After setting up my page, I was able to begin posting to my blog with a single click, which directed me to page where I could compose, format and spellcheck my posting without any necessary knowledge of Html. In additional to its easy-to-use interface and ability to meet my functional requirements, the site included various "extras" which peaked my interest, motivating me to explore additional customization options. For example, I saw I was able to add a poll to my blog, lists of my interests, or even a link to a video on youtube.
