The feature I love most about the blog platform I use is....?

I have used the four main blog platforms in my time as a mom blogger. I've used Blogger, Typepad, Wordpress and Wordpress (self-hosted). I really love the Wordpress widgets. They make sprucing up up your sidebar really easy.

What feature do you love about the blog platform you use?

I've used greymatter, movable type, text pattern, and wordpress (all self-hosted). Out of all of those, I'd have to say I love Wordpress the most b/c of its widgets.
As a fairly new blogger, I love Blogger. I was able to get up and blogging in no time, knowing not the first thing about anything! Also, now that I am more experienced, using such a popular format, there are TONS of hacks out there to make your page however you would like for it to be.
I use WordPress and I love the organization of the entire platform.
Wordpress I like to post-date things!
Wordpress - I like the plugins and widgets. I also like that I can schedule my posts in advance.
I like using the picture. I love adding a picture of my family or friends to one of my post.
Blogger ~ I just love the simplicity to it. I was up and running in no time. I love everything about blogger. You can also type up your post and then schedule it to post on a certain day/time. I love it. I wouldn't change for anything.
I've used Word Press, Blogger and Typepad and hands down my love goes to Blogger. Love the drag & drop option in layout. The Widgets. The postdating option.

I can't figure out how to get widgets working in Wordpress...probably because I lost the API key -- love that blogger doesn't have an API key.
I only know how to use Blogger. I would love to see what Wordpress has to offer, but I just can't figure it out.
I started out with Blogger, piece of cake. Then I moved to WordPress b/c I need my blog to be part of my website. I can't figure anything out! I just hired someone to help me with it, because right now the tag line should be, "It only looks generic". I had a decent WordPress blog that someone designed for me, then I switched servers and lost the whole thing. Based on the positive WordPress comments here I am looking forward to learning it.
I love the ease of using Blogger. The thing that bugs me is that I can't easily index my posts into categories.
I have only ever used blogger. I guess my very favorite feature is that it is free and as someone who started blogging not knowing a thing it has been a very user friendly option for me to learn the ropes on.
