I'm sick of blogger.
- It's difficult to post with Blogger's edit window because
- Inconsistent Mac interface leads to sometimes using control and sometimes the Apple key. For example italics use control but cut and paste uses Apple.
- Incredibly poor spell checker. Doesn't learn words. Can't add possessive or capitalized versions automatically. Very small dictionary.
- Not able to search while editing a post.
- Spacing issues. HTML for this post is unreadable because of no carriage returns. There is another option for carriage returns which disable wsywig.
- But it's difficult to create posts outside of blogger because
- Cut and paste leads to many errors.
- Mailing to blog adds extra paragraphs in middle of sentence and puts in unclosed tags.
- It has no categories.
- It's slow.
- Templates are difficult to edit due to small text box, no search, lack of color coding.
- Dealing with images is a hassle (this is most understandable, considering it is free service).
- No password protection for posts.
- Combined with Google bar spellchecker it will delete posts.
- It can take a long time (months) for a blog to get indexed. Pretty poor for a service hosted by a search engine. Indexing speed is probably based on traffic.
- There are sometimes problems on the edit screen where the edit bar will take up most of the page.
- Blogger support team is unresponsive to bug posts.
- Bug list on blogger page is nowhere near complete.
- Service outages.
- Spellchecker is very poor. These were all words that Blogger didn't know as I was posting on July 30- Davids, sociologist's, publisher's, asphyxiated, unfunny, unAmerican . This number is fairly representative.
