I have created a blog on this site, Blogger and one on Wordpress to see what the differences are.
From what I can tell right now is that I can change more typographically on Blogger than on Wordpress without having to pay extra money. I changed the width, color, font and of course chose a template for the background on Blogger.
On Wordpress I was able to have a bit more creative license by making an image in Photoshop, downloading it onto my blog site and using it as a sidebar. When I tried to change the fonts, font sizes and colors it seemed that I had to pay for that.
Here is the link for my Wordpress blog : www.beckygahman.wordpress.com.
On that blog I talk a bit about how I manipulated the image in Photoshop and some sources for free photo's online and the importance of using free images (or paying for them!)
That basically is Blog #3: Can I get a resource?
I will continue to figure out video's and widgets but for now this is what I have.
Here is a video on Youtube that talks about putting a video in your Blog!
