Complaints/Questions

Anybody out there know much about blogspot/blogger? I'm getting frustrated with a number of things, and I've only been on here three days.
Here we go:
  • when adding photos, it places the added photo above the text, and above any previously posted pictures.
  • The editor is only in html, rather than visual; this means I've got to do a lot of cutting and pasting of text that I think is the right text and try to move it around. (Boo hoo!)
  • Wordpress has this lovely feature that shows how many people have visited, where they came from/linked from, and what kinds of search terms they used to get to your site. Not that this is necessary, but it certainly is addictive to find out your "stats". Does blogspot have this?
So, if you know anything about these features (or lack thereof), I would love to hear from you. Thank you for your time.

  1. El Jefe. Posting pics in blogger is a pain in the arse. So here's a few things you can do. While in blogger, you can click on "my account" and it pulls up lots of other google services. For pictures, sign up for Picasa. It is free and allows you to upload pictures on a web album. From your web albums you can get a code to embed the pictures directly. Better cuz the pictures are BIGGER and plus, no stupid reformatting after ever pic.

    Google account #2 is analytics. This is all the site trafficking you will need. You can exclude your IP address for more accurate readings.

  2. Just switch back to Wordpress. That's where all the cool people are.
