Have something to say? Want to share it with the world? Blogging is a recent and very popular fad, with growing influence in many sectors -- including business. For better or worse, blogging is a vibrant and growing part of the Internet landscape.

We looked at the two top blogging services. Best known, and free, is Google's Blogger. But you get what you pay for: Blogger is a basic blogging service that won't overpower beginners with too many options or choices. For a small monthly fee, however, Six Apart's TypePad provides the services we'd like to see offered within Blogger, such as mixed-media templates, built-in photo uploading and guest accounts. Ironically, Blogger makes it much easier to host your blogs on your own domain; TypePad allows it but also requires a little extra work between you and your ISP.

"We don't recommend specific technologies — we promote the use of technology per se." What sort of nonsense is this?? Every Becta endorsed IT supplier to schools is a Microsoft shop. Every single one.
