I have to create a blog for grad school. I’m torn as to whether I should use wordpress or blogger. I think that I like the appearance of wordpress blogs better, but blogger seems to be easier to use. I’m going to be a librarian, and my blog will be library-related. Will I be better off using one or the other? Any advice is appreciated!
Thanks so much : )

Customize WordPress themes?
I’ve recently installed wordpress into my site.
The thing is, I don’t like or want any of the themes they offer.
Is there any way that I can make the blog have the same appearance/layout as my own personal site?
BTW, I only installed wordpress because I thought it might be better than CuteNews. If there are any FREE blogging systems out there, can you please recommend some? :]
Also, what can I use to have several comment boxes throughout my site? Like, one for blogs, and one for just feedback of my visitor content or something like that. Any ideas?
Please help! Thanks.
I Don't Have A PlugIns Menu In My WordPress Blog?
Every support doc. i’ve read, automatically assumes i have a Plugins menu in my WordPress blog after ‘Appearance’ and Before ‘Users’, which i can use to execute various code.
However i’ve been through my entire blog menu and i can’t seen to find the ‘Plugins’ menu.
I’m using a theme ‘cutline’ and am on a free account.
Also, i’ve tried to find out how to install plug-ins and couldn’t understand a word.
Does anyone have a step by step approach which starts from ‘Boot Into Windows’.
I’m on the WordPress.com account. Not WordPress.org.
What i’m trying to do is add ‘Google Analytics’ to my Blog. Does anyone know how to do that?

Using Plugins for WordPress?
I joined WordPress yesterday and I’m using the free hosting option, but I’m planning on buying a domain name this weekend(I don’t think that really matters). I’ve looked at a few tutorials on how to install plugins, but under the "appearance" menu, the option isn’t there. What I’m asking is, if someone could tell me how get to the plugins menu, or give me a link.
P.S I know how to download plugins, I just can’t install ’em.
How do I get my wordpress themes to show in the appearance mode?
In my dashboard when I click the appearance function, my themes show as blank squares with a little red "x" in the upper left corner. My tool bar does the same thing when logged in under wp admin. Spell check, etc. are all blank.
