I'm thinking of going back to Blogger because it's more custom friendly than wp.com. Any good !googlefree alternatives?

@nuclearsandwich looks nice. But don't let non-techies like @andyc see this.

@davidmarsden @nuclearsandwich @andyc god damn it. Why didn't I find that...
-
@davidmarsden yeah. I'm using posterilous right now cause I am too busy to do my own design. Octopress seems a pretty default to build on.
