  • One other comparison is the difference of how each handle leaving comments.
  • Wordpress allows a handy comment box with the post
  • annoying feature of Blogger is that it opens another window that does not match the theme of your blog.
  • If you create a new blogspot blog the initial selection of templates is incomplete.
  • To see the complete list you need to go to the template section of the dashboard and click on "Pick New Template".
  • Blogger uses the term "stretch" for variable width templates.

  • entire premise from the beginning is to spark, create, engage ( any number of words come to mind really) a conversation.

  • If you don’t autopost you’re limiting your potential audience that has an opportunity to help you engage in a conversation.
  • If you autopost and spark a conversation that takes you away to using any of the other services than Amplify has done it’s job of sparking a conversation.
  • one of the most important things an Amplify user should do is to recommend and comment on other users posts.
  • utoposting is a really great feature if you have your Amplify as your main blog as I do
