    For hosted solution, i definitely prefer blogspot. otherwise, i have self-hosted wordpress blogs and I love them. Can't go for wordpress hosted cox they don't allow ads.

    Wordpress, and that too self hosted wordpress not wordpress.com because then your features & control are limited!
    plus wordpress is constantly updated with new features, security & bug fixes, i don't think blogger can do that. Oh and don't forget wordpress amazing community with tonnes of plugins, themes, etc. Wordpress wins by a large margin.

    I would suggest Wordpress, since it has more features and a better feel than blogger.

    Anyone who is undecided needs to read through the basic features of both options.

    http://www.blogger.com/features
    http://wordpress.org/about/features/

    If you have the time to manage and customize your site, go with wordpress. If you just want to write post and not worry about security updates, stat's tracking and other management task go with blogger.

    all live each user's preferences, but to support the business world of the internet I recommend using WordPress, with the WordPress platform then you will be more creative to start blogging.

    Wordpress is definitely a better looking, more robust platform, so why would anyone choose Blogger? Because it is owned by Google, and if the only reason you are blogging is for search engine placement - try Blogger

    Wordpress is better because of the features and large plugin community as someone said before its better to have self hosted one

    I believe wordpress has way more possibilities (read plugins ;) ) You can customize it the way you want in no time.
