The WordPress Dummy in me is currently busy checking out WordPress thanks to LJ who opened up a test account for me to try posting using this new blogging platform. It is scary that's for sure but then again, it could just be me because I am hopeless when it comes to anything not Blogger related. And WP is without doubt, unfamiliar territory for me. 
Why I'm checking out WP you ask? Well for one, I've had enough of the Missing Comment Syndrome (MCS) I've been experiencing at here, not only due to JS but Blogger too apparently. Plus, I have been having issues editing my posts. Whenever I try accessing my older posts, an error message appears. I then have to refresh the edit posts page nonstop until the error message disappears. This I suspect is also due to Blogger.
As a perfectionist, it bugs me when things are stalled, incomplete or missing from my blog. I've been with Blogger for three years now and perhaps it is time for me to move on to something new. I am not saying that I will be moving to WordPress ASAP; it takes time for me to grasp the whole complicated concept. So until I've perfected my WP knowledge, it is still Blogger for now.
Having a WP blog also means I'd have to consider paid hosting and I've been checking out a review or two on potential web hosting sites. JustHost for instance is a highly-reputed hosting provider. One of the cheapest hosts in the market, JustHost offers superior network and server infrastructure so you can always depend on them. Features include unlimited disk space, unlimited bandwidth, unlimited email accounts, unlimited SQL databases and it allows you to host unlimited domains from one account!

Hi Mariuca! :* :* :*
Yeah, I still have MCS on my site at times as well. I haven't had any error messages when posting. I have to say I like ID much better than JS though.
But I agree it is better to gain knowledge of WP before switching. :)

I'm so used to Blogger despite the problems. I find WP not so easy to use.
I would need time to study how to use WP and I'm still quite clueless on Blogger functions. haha....
Visiting you on wheelchair... hehehe....

Yet I forget totally about FF, teruk lah I ni, you tau now only I remember! I think the link is still open kan? See what I can do, perhaps just a short post.
Again, I pejam celet, pejam celet dok lawan mata kat my pc desk sampai pagi. Nasi yg I masak pun tak makan, blog I baru satu, adoi! teruk lah, kena pantas and consistent. I am trying ... that's why sampai tertidor kat pc desk lagi zzzzzzzzz
:( :( :(
This for you :) ;) 8-) :* :-D :* :* :* :* & hugzzz
I am thinking about switching to wordpress too. :D
Hi LJ, I have a problem accessing this blog of yours too for already days now. I just then tried again and again until I can visit here and also drop EC. I suggest, removing your "Twitter Following Widget" which has your name on the last follower, the one below the text generator of "I Am In A Bucket". I have also pop-up before which a lot of my visitor and buddies complained. Even adgitize blocked my main blog of having an adverts from them because of the pop-up. That time, I didn't know yet what caused on it and until now, I didn't ask adgi moderator to consider me as an advertiser even though the pop-up already gone. My pride also raisen. ;) Anyhoo, it's not adgi or me but the widget html that which I said. I research and observe it on my own experimenting my own blog for that reason and other buddies also I recommend the idea and get rid of the pop-up problem which caused a big problem. Try it Marzie if it works. Lab yah.. ~hugs&kisses~

hi marzie..
well, i was also experiencing the same thing.. i thought it was just me but apparently it's not.. it's kinda getting on my nerves lately coz sometimes it took me almost 30 mins to log in to my blogger and when i was about to post, there are lots of error messages..
i tried to open a wordpress account but i see it's quite complicated indeed. *DONT_KNOW* i don't know what to do.. i'm actually looking for something that's not too expensive too.. hmmm.. again.. i don't know what to do.. *DONT_KNOW*
and there are times its so hard to access my own blog.. arrrgh >:o >:o >:o
anyways marzie, if it turns out wordpress is better and if there's a cheaper way to transfer to another web host, do share a step or two ya.. ;)
marzie!!!! wohoo! it'll get easier over time!! this i promise you!! same like blogger also, it's just that you have to get use with the interface.
Emila!!!
