blogging app

[eclipse525]

What are most of you using to Blog? Can you create you're own Blog via an application like Dreamweaver? Are there separate app's just for blogging? I've heard of WordPress, is this any good? Sorry for the "NewbieBlog" question but hell I am just now venturing into this area. Oh yeah, I am also going to start my own PodCast as well, if this makes a difference. Thanks for any help and guidance.

I use WordPress. You can use Dreamweaver with wordpress to see how pages will look before they go online, but mainly you just need to learn CSS. Wordpress is installed on the server, and you update CSS files which change the look of your blog. Individual entries are composed online, much the same way this forum works. You can go to the worpress support page to find out more about how it works.

If you're not up for that, you can also go to WordPress.com and set up a free blog using one of their templates.
