I've just started my own blog through blogger.com.
http://benpiggot.blogspot.com.
(Shameless plug/link, I know)
And, I have some questions maybe some others here cold help me with.
Firstly, I'd like to be able to make it so my blog can generate comments from readers. Is this a question of paying? Or does blogger.com just not offer this option?
Secondly, I'd like to create links on my weblog? Again the same questions apply. Thirdly, how do you generate any interest in a blog? Is it just a matter of writing stuff people dig, and this creates a "word of web" phenomenon?
I look forward to hearing feedback from others here. Maybe you can discuss your blog in the process!
