WordPress, Blogger, Tumblr, or which?

I like Tumblr, but I like the picture blogging much more than the word blogging.

I’d give Posterous a shot (plus they’re right down the street from Fluther).

I love WordPress.

I have to agree with @timtrueman. I have a posterous blog and I love it.

shameless plug

I use tumblr only because there’s a better community there for the subject of my blog. But I prefer Wordpress as a straight blogging platform.

For a writing blog, I use wordpress. Tumblr really seems to be for snippets of text or picture blogging.

So the general consensus is that for something more ornate, Wordpress is the way to go?

@Seek_Kolinahr: mine is wordpress… and I don’t know what you consider ornate but I think for a blog, mine is.

There’s a link to mine on my profile, so you can see two very different themes in use if that helps.

I would say Wordpress is more robust than tumblr or blogger. It allows for expansion should the need arise. Customization options are greater and easy to implement. I also find the privacy and security settings more extensive and flexible. Yes, between the three I would say Wordpress. I have only read about posterous but it seems what it offers can be accomplished with Wordpress through the use of plug-ins, which is another Wordpress feature that puts it over the top for me.

Tumblr is easy, and straightforward. It has everything you need for a normal blog.
Wordpress is more complicated and very powerful. It’s still easy enough for a newbie to use the important functions.

Wordpress doesn’t want me to upload a new theme. This sucks on ice.

definitely wordpress over blogger. I made that switch a while ago and it made me happy.

I host my own domain, which allows me to use wordpress.org instead of wordpress.com.This gives me a hell of a lot of customisation and control with the themes.

@Seek_Kolinahr Wordpress is really only magic if you install it on your own server…
My opinion…

Ugh.

Okay, because I am 1. poor, so squarespace is out, 2. not talented, so wordpress is out, and 3. in need of much more than “Hi, I’m here today” blogging, so tumblr is out…

I guess I’m sticking with Blogger. Which I kinda understand, having used it before. Gods, I hope it gives me what I need. Grr.

I would definitely choose tumblr over blogger. Blogger is kinda outdated, and tumblr is more powerful than you’d think!

Wordpress = Love.

@Seek_Kolinahr I’m pretty tech-tarded, so if I can get wordpress to work for me I’m sure you can! Just play around with it for a bit… you’ll get the hang of it.
