I Choose Blogsome Rather Than Wordpress
One day, I look around to several of my friends’ blog. Most of them using wordpress, some of them using blogger or friendster blog. I’m interested to WordPress when I found my friend link a pdf file from his WordPress file container, something that can’t done using Blogsome (it only support image file). I’m seduced to migrating from Blogsome to WordPress, and just copy-and-paste the setting in Blogsome to WordPress. But…
I registered already an account in WordPress, and log in, look similar to Blogsome "control panel", but hey… where is the "File" (Blogsome terminology) tab to edit the template? I can’t found it. So I googling with keywords "different between blogsome and wordpress" and link me to this weblog. Although it’s only blog, but the study is objective, here below is some of his (I think he is male) results.
WordPress and Blogsome are same
However, WordPress.com is currently running WordPress 2.0 while Blogsome is running WordPress 1.5. That’s not to say that WordPress.com is better than Blogsome. Just slightly different.
Where Blogsome has it over WordPress
You can actually edit the templates. WordPress.com won’t allow you to edit the templates at all. This gives Blogsome extra flexibility that you don’t get with WordPress.com.
Where WordPress has it over Blogsome
WordPress.com offers more themes than Blogsome. Five of them are the same, but the rest are different. WordPress.com’s selections generally have a more professional appearance, but that doesn’t mean a better appearance.
More on Blogsome
While you can edit templates, adding JavaScript to the HEAD section doesn’t always work. In particular, many functions are disabled and the JavaScript throws an error. If you’re not familiar with JavaScript, it may not matter to you. But do be aware of this limitation. JavaScript in the BODY seems to work just fine. Including Blogrolling.com code, TTLB status code, and the like. It’s only functions in the HEAD that seem to be an issue.
After comparing and considering, I chose to stay with my Blogsome, because I want flexibility in using theme. Blogsome show the theme code in HTML and style page in CSS, they are editable! You can see in my blogsome (actually you’ve done), I can add clock, shoutbox, hit counter, ip tracker, create button (instead of link), delete something that I doesn’t likes, almost anything!
How about you?
