    OK! if one wants to have lot of blogs then one can join this new blog site too. BUT if one just want to have only one blog then why should anyone join it and not other well established blogs(since they are more reliable).

    just a question, nothing personal ;)

    You are spot on correct!

    In fact, I would suggest that if you just want ONE blog - get your own domain and hosting. Do not depend on a free blogging service!

    thanks for the quick and fair reply Phynder, yes i already have my own blog and I always tell new bloggers to spend some money in domain and hosting. But just wanted to get that question out of my mind.

    I'm putting together a new front page for the site, which will then become the theme throughout. I put the other one together rather fast just to have something out there while i worked at something better:

    http://www.oioblogger.com/aaa.php

    What i'm most interested in is any suggestions you might have for the "why blog" section of the page. I've gone for a type of mini-splash design at the top to catch the attention, and then below a more detailed info section.

    I'm looking at a monologue style question and answer set, with the focus on why blog (not on why join this particular site, it's been pointed out enough times already on this thread that the site is nothing special yet). If you have any constructive suggestions on what might fit in with this theme (such as reasons people blog, quotes etc) i'd love to hear them! The page below will get added to (and sometimes taken away from) in short bursts, as i don't have any specific deadline to get it done by, and would like to get it "just right".

    Thanks in advance for any comments you might have. :)

    Hey TheFox! I like your avatar - cute fox. I am not sure I understand your question. Did you post in the wrong thread by accident?

    quick question

    if you start a service like that giving away hosted wordpress blogs (like your mate is doing) can you edit the default theme that gets installed with your adsense ads..

    so basically loads of ppl will be blogging away with your ads on 'their' blog (its really yours - some TOS catch)

    is this possible?

    Sure, it is possible - but not how he is running it. You can add you own adsense ads via a plug-in. Sign up for an account and see!
