lol.. Funny title, but thats how it really was for me. This is my story.

I started out with blogger. It was easy, simple and I got used to it pretty quickly. But then, I wanted more. It was annoying not to have as many features as I wanted, so I decided to switch. I came to greymatter.

It worked great. I liked it, and it was easy. But it took up too much space and wasn't very secure. So, I switched to MT.

It was hard to edit the templates and I was exhausted after one try. I gave up quickly.

Then, I came to pmachine. It was my first intro to php and it was easy. I liked it, but I couldn't get my css to work. So I dumped that pretty quickly.

I went back to blogger for a little while before I started b2. I loved it! It was fast, easy and it was everything I had ever wanted. Now, I am using it and I am loving my blog. Its not a burden anymore.
Thanks b2.

*lol* that sounded like a commercial!

I used Blogger.com for about 6 months. I liked it, but the templates were hard to use. Then I switched to NewsPro. I liked it, but I wasn't able to add all the news articles I posted with Blogger. I then switched to b2. I was finally able to add my news from Blogger.com and NewsPro, which I had saved. My only problem with b2 was getting it to work in a seperate directory, and making it compatible with xhtml. Now I'm using WordPress, and am very happy with it.

I tried b2, Blogger and attempted MT all at once. Hated Blogger as you had to update from their site and could never get MT to install, not to mention it wasn't PHP which is what I wanted to use/learn, so I went with b2.

Since then, I've hacked the heck out of mine, installed another copy of b2 for my friend and will soon be hacking up a 3rd copy of b2 for a Desert Combat clan I'm in. Smile

If you haven't already installed b2, I advise you look into WordPress or b2evo instead as b2 is dead.
