I keep wanting to test the waters of WordPress. I get inspired and motivated by other bloggers who make the switch. BackPacking Dad made the switch very recently.
I think to myself I could do that. I like that WordPress you can create separate pages and not limited to categories like in Blogger. However, I like the WYSIWYG of blogger. I wiffle waffle back and forth and can’t make up my mind. I can’t seem to find a free template I like for WordPress. There is the Thesis Theme but you have to pay for that. I don’t have the funds for that. I can’t really find one I like for Blogger either.
I want to test the waters but am afraid to do it. I use blogger for Buck’s Blog and Rules for My Daughter. I use WordPress for Dad-o-matic and a new blog called Blogalogues, where I will be writing The Dad’s Eye View. For the ones that I use WordPress for I don’t host them or choose the template. Those are the parts that scare me.
Also this is me testing the waters of Flickr and its blogging platform. The only thing I don’t like about it is that you can’t edit the code and put links in. I do however like that it gives credit to the picture. I would like to be able to send it, edit it, and then be able to publish instead of straight publishing.
I guess nothing is perfect.

Go Wordpress man! If you use a good host then the set up is super easy and using themes is no different than using plug-ins. Plus, I think commenting on Wordpress blogs is much easier and user friendly.
Wordpress is easy to set-up on my host – dreamhost.com – You are right about the themes, I have looked at thousands of 'em and none ever quite cut it, but that's the great thing about WP, you can alter the .php and .css code to customize.
If you are looking for help with that let me know
