Unfortunately my movie is a bit wide!! But anyway it works!

Comparing Blogger & Tangelo

Blogger is certainly easier to setup.
Advantages of Blogger include:

1. Comments builtin


2. Easier to choose a template

Advantages of Tangelo include:

1. Can host on own server


2. Simpler Image Access


3. More control of template - BUT requires significant HTML & CSS editing
