As I round up PART 2 of this Pro-Wordpress post…

…I have been able to help you with the reasons to make a quality decision about your next blogging platform – Wordpress.

While I’m not against using of blogspot – It was my blooging platform for almost 4 years for God’s sake and I still use blogspot for some niche sites – if you are thinking of still blogging 10 years from now, WordPress is it.

I’m sure you are thinking I am a biased “reviewer”. No I am not –in fact to present a balanced argument, see Yongfook’s  10 reasons why he ditched WordPress.

This is for us to see WordPress from the other side of the wall.

PLEASE let me know what you think. Will Ya?
