While that’s the first thing that people think of — at least me, as a professional blogger — content is anything that can be read, watched, seen, or heard. Find photos from Flickr or Picasa — be sure to use Creative Commons photos — or buy royalty-free stock photography, and put them in your blog posts for added impact.

I like the way it’s written, and my favorite thing to do as a blogger is piece together the bigger picture. In the very first release, Plus has a killer integration with Picasa (Google’s photo service), and its live video chat feature (called Hangout) could very easily become a Skype killer. This is #1. Google Buzz.

Google has an operating system (Chrome), a browser (Chrome), and the leading mobile platform (Android). Google Buzz. To some extent Google Wave.

Just recently, the app was updated to version 8, bringing one essential feature suited for mobile bloggers: the ability to post photos that you’ve taken using your iPhone’s camera.

Since writing for LouisGray.com a few years ago I've been curious about Blogger. I talked to Rick Klau , Blogger's Product Manager at the time, at a BlogWorld expo a few years back and he insisted I try it. I admit I didn't like the interface of Blogger at first. So my main choices were Blogger and Wordpress.com.
