->> I want to start a blog but I'm undecided about wordpress, blogger, or tumblr. I was playing around with Tumblr last night and I created a blog with a few test posts from a recent shoot and my dog.

Let me know what you think.
Is tumblr good for blogs?
Is wordpress better? If you have a blog which one are you using?
I also want to integrate it to my website (I use neonsky.)
If you have a blog send me a link, I would love to look at your work.

->> I use wordpress for my sites, but I don't know what obstacles you'll face integrating with Neon Sky. My portfolio site (http://www.joelhawksley.com) is entirely WP powered, and it ranks a lot better SEO wise than a flash-based site.
The one downside with wordpress is the spam/security issues. You need to keep it updated, or you risk getting hacked when new security issues are plugged. |

->> I also run wordpress. I really like that I can install the software on my server space so I don't have a wordpress sub-domain. I don't know if the others can do that or not.
There are also endless plug-ins and themes to help give your site a nice look with good features, all with minimal effort.

| ->> You can purchase a domain from within Blogger for $10.00. I like blogger because it integrates so well within the Google umbrella. I think Either major system works very well. I keep my blog seperate from my website because I want it to attract traffic to my website. |
