"absolutely an incredible blogging
tool. We use it for the blogs mentioned below in my
signature and couldn’t be happier. We pay around
$150/year for our needs, but there are less expensive
options available. Includes RSS feeds, which are
probably worth of a category all by themselves. Learn
how to create RSS feeds through The Common Craft Show. "

"To maintain my 2 blogs I continue to use
TypePad. I have tried other
(free) tools but I still prefer TypePad.
Anyway, changing blogging tools means the RSS feed
breaks, and until someone comes up with a way to
re-direct feeds, shall stick with TypePad."
Jane Hart

"I use this blog tool for some
years now.
Userfriendly and reliable.
Helps me reflecting on developments."

"Writing a blog is a learning activity, of
course, but reading the best blogs that are

experiences."

"My recommended blog platform. Blogging has become a key
medium for self-directed learning and TypePad serves me
well."
Patrick Mayfield
-
"This is the platform I use for blogging. I was
able to get my blog up and running quickly and
easily at the time when I knew nothing about
blogging."

"Blogging is my chief way of making sense of
things. I have a premium account because it gives me maximum
functionality, access to a lot of cool widgets and the
ability to create unlimited blogs, which I do for many of my
clients to test out ideas and prototype websites."

- " I use TypePad,
which is a commercial tool but it gives me some extra functionality
not available in most of
the free tools. I particularly like the option
to schedule postings, which means I can write them
in advance and they are posted automatically for me
at a time I want"
Jane Hart
- "Economical. Very fast support-desk,
run by humans. Easily learnt, but see
The new polaroid is
Typepad for an adverse comment on
what happens if you want to move stuff out of
Typepad"
