Prometheus 6   

Do not make the mistake of thinking that because my conclusion is the same as another person's that my reasoning is the same

OK, one more thing

I use Blogger because it's free and lets me use my existing free web space (for various reasons that would turn into whining if I went into them, free is a Good ThingTM at this point in my life), and I don't really like the idea of my stuff existing soley on another guy's server.

But you know, MT looks good, especially with some of the modifications I've seen, like a sidebar that lists the most recently updated comments.

I've seen two sites now that offer free MT hosting. One looks like vanilla MT and is so new it's not actually running yet. The other would require me to install MT myself… and Perl is not my friend. But once it's running, it cold really kick ass.

Yet Blogger seems to be making a serious move to resolve its issues. Archives look good at last… because I had the practice of regenerating the most recent on after a fairly significant posting spree my problems weren't as bad as some folks'. And my site loads pretty quickly since it's straight text. And Earthlink has the volume thing down pretty well— this site moves well hen Blogger-hosted sites are dragging.

So I'm looking for advice. I'm sufficiently techie that no one has brought me an unsolvable problem yet. Do I leave well enough alone because the current setup is sufficient unto the call? Or do I mess with Perl and MT so I can be like da cool kids?
