     @stevegillmor What did I miss? When I said that third party track was vital, you said I was wrong. Today, you properly praise IdentiSpy.??

     @stevegillmor Is my mistake in not thinking that IdentiSpy is "client-side track"? Is client-side anything not on the Identi.ca server?

   • Dustin Sallings Bob Wyman

     @bobwyman the client isn't doing the work, a server is. It's just not the same server as identi.ca

     @andyc Thanks. Blogger would not accept any 3rd party templates I threw at it. Especially 3 column designs. Just gives error codes bx-------

     @mrqwerty Sorry - my first blogging platform was Blogger but I found the Tech Support non-existent.

     @andyc In all fairness you didn't list Joomla, which brings the blog-ease of WP to the extensibility of Drupal… @mrqwerty

     @andyc: That was the first thing i thought when i heard about it. Still can't find myself to sign up for another. Jaiku & here, that's it.

     @forest Au contraire, I have used the last two versions of Joomla. It may be the best CMS dev tool but the Admin interface leaves me cold.

     @forest Also, if you're just 'blogging', I honestly believe Joomla is overkill but to each their own. Peace, love, empathy.

   • Mr Qwerty forest mars

     @forest does Joomla offer free hosting space like Blogger?

     Friday, 22-Aug-08 00:33:25 UTC
   • Andy C Mr Qwerty

     @mrqwerty Hmm - you must have another blog somewhere - your profile blog only has one post ?

     Friday, 22-Aug-08 00:36:48 UTC
   • Andy C Mr Qwerty

     @mrqwerty Not AFAIK. WordPress does (and mrqwerty is free). WP.com has plenty of bundled themes. Might be worth signing up and evaluating.

   • Andy C Mr Qwerty

     @mrqwerty However, if you need a custom (musical) WP theme, you'll looking at WordPress.org and paid for hosting (can be < £5 pcm though)
