1. Which blog service(s) are you using?
Livejournal
2. Why do you choose that particular blog service(s)?
Free, simple, has an RSS feed.
3. What do you like and dislike about their services / features?
Like: Free, simple, has an RSS feed.
Dislike: Maybe posting images and links could be even easier.
4. What kind of improvement do you think can be made by the service provider?
I would say they could add more ability to customize, but they do offer that for paid accounts. |

1. Which blog service(s) are you using?
WordPress, Blogger.
2. Why do you choose that particular blog service(s)?
WordPress for fast PHP/MySQL on my own server with unlimited flexibility and SE-friendly URLs. Blogger for Blog*Spot free hosting, built-in templates, WYSIWYG editor, and because Google owns it.
3. What do you like and dislike about their services / features?
WordPress isn't quite fast enough, theme selection could be better, default install not adequate. Blogger bad commenting interface, comment spam problem, and works via FTP only (requires republishing; not dynamically-generated pages).
4. What kind of improvement do you think can be made by the service provider?
Rectifying the above dislikes and above all, keep it fast, simple, easy to develop for.

1. Which blog service(s) are you using?
Blogger
2. Why do you choose that particular blog service(s)?
Free, No ads, free hosting, nice domain name, i can use my own design, easy editor.
3. What do you like and dislike about their services / features?

Blogger

They have spam issues which make listings hard with some blog search engines.

Create a comments on hold section, so submission can be reviewed before going online. The way it works now is that you can either allow published comment from blog members, anyone or no one at all. |

Actually, you can moderate comments before publishing them. Go to "Settings" and then "Comments", and then check "yes" on "Enable Comment Moderation". That's all.
