Welcome Quest Readers!
Considering the Quest article has been out for about a week now this post is a little late. I was interviewed for the article during the summer, so there are couple of things I’d like to clarify since the information in the article is outdated. I no longer use Google’s Blogger service. I liked it but wanted to expand my blogging experience so now I’m using WordPress and I host my own blog using DreamHost.
If you’re considering starting your own blog I highly recommend Blogger because it’s very easy to use and totally free. If you have your own webspace, you can still use Blogger’s service, but there are couple of changes you need to make which are outlined in their help section.
WordPress is also a free blogging format, but it’s more robust and requires a bit more technical tweaking on the backend. I don’t recommend it unless you are tech savvy or enjoy learning things on your own.
I have received a few e-mails from people introducing themselves to me after they have read the Quest article. If you would like to drop me a note please do so using my contact information or leave a comment.
Hey Karen, nice site. I was just looking thru quest and thought I’d look up your blog. I’m actually pretty new to the blogging thing myself, but I’ve been a political junkie for sometime and as a result tend to keep tabs on Michelle Malkin, Townhall, Hugh Hewitt, Jawa Report, Little Green Footballs, etc, etc, etc.
In any case, I was wondering why you’re “mouring the loss of freedom of speech ’till election day”? Is this maybe in reference to some local issue I’m ignorant of?
Anyway, keep blogging and I’ll be back to visit. Take care, Chip Owens ; http://freshlymugged.blogspot.com/
