Comments on: Poll: Why aren’t you self-hosting your blog? http://dbzer0.com/blog/poll-why-arent-you-self-hosting-your-blog A bug in the code of the universe.

Sometimes: It renders as grain-of-sand typeface in IE. It creates an annoying hulabaloo instead of letting me comment. It has pestered me and pissed me off in other ways over the last two years I can't recall at the moment, but I'm left wondering what people see in it if this is the readers' experience. PS: The Intense Debate examples below strike me as being manic enough for the Video Game, ADD Generation, but too "busy" and hard to read for my taste. Boy, I'm in a pissy mood right now!

I know HTML and how to create a website, I'm actually working on a website that displays my cosplay, but when I decided to blog the point was to simply let my ideas be out there. And for that to happen I didn't needa fancy website, but just something simple and useable. So I went with Blogger because instead of using my preciously limited time on writing a website, why not use something that's there and free and has everything I already need? Granted if I wanted to take off with my blog as something more prominant like the blogs you lsited, I might be inclined to create my own. But that's not my goal, I'm content being an unofficial and small atheist blogger. So I picked "I'm not a pro-blogger" and "I don't have time to set it up" I've actually just started out blogging, I only have 1 post so far.
