travel blog sites

[wrldtrvllr]

What's the best travel blog site to use when travelling? I'm going to be away for a while and thought it's an easy way to let family and friends know what's happening. Ideally it'll be free with unlimited storage for photos, doesn't "expire", minimal ads (i doubt i can get one without any unnecessary clutter for free, but happy for you to prove me wrong), easy to use, fast upload ... anything else that's important? Suggest away - I'm all ears!

I set up a blog for my neice to see what I do, I haven't added much yet.

I've used Blogspot before and it's very easy to use.

I've used blogger in the past, which worked very well. The interface for uploading photos, or linking photos from flickr.com is quite easy. From a layout point of view, blogger pages can become quite long, as the text window is only half the width of the page.

I was recommended to try Wordpress, and it allows much bigger photos to be displayed than blogger, but in the end I decided to stick with what I knew.
