Blogger

Blogger is a blog storage service that allows private or multi-user blogs with time-stamped entries. It is funded by on-screen ads. It was created by Pyra Labs, which was bought by Google in 2003.The service itself is located at www.blogger.com. Generally, the blogs are hosted by Google at subdomains of blogspot.com. Until May 1 2010 an FTP service allows pages edited through Blogger to be published to other hosts. If this service ceases, all blogger blogs will be hosted by Google, though domains other than blogspot.com may be used.

To Create a Blogger blog, you simply go to Blooger.com and sign up.

Note: Even though you don't need a hosting account with blogger, I would highly recommend you buy your own domain for your blog so your address is http://www.yorblog.com instead of http://yourblog.blogger.com.

Once you buy your domain, Blogger has instructions for pointing your domain name to your blog.
