It seems like these days everyone is a blogging about something. People blog about fitness, food, family, fashion, etc. The possibilities are endless. Some people use blogging as an annonomous outlet to release their feelings and frustrations, similar to a journal. Others blog with the intent of being heard. Maybe you have some wisdom or advice to share, or maybe you are seeking empathy through a group of people caught in the same spot in life. Whatever intentions you may have, the resources are there and readily available for anyone who desires to easily create their very own blog.

The two most popular sites for getting started are Wordpress and Blogger. Chances are that everyone who has ever read a blog has read one created in one of these 2 programs. For a newbie, Blogger is probably the best bet. It is simple and easy to use - anyone who has ever posted in an internet forum should easily be able to navigate the format. You can select a theme and be up and blogging in minutes. For someone up to the challenge, Wordpress is similar to Blogger, yet more advanced, and it offers many more features. With the endless plugins available through Wordpress, the sky is the limit when it comes to customization.
