I have been using Blogger for about 2 weeks. I really like it and am surprised how easy it is to use. It is a Free Google Application that is easily integrated into your Google+ networking plan. It is a very basic program, but also has advanced features that make your finished blog look professional and polished.
The absolute best part about this program, has to be that you can hire someone to set up the entire blog for you (I would say $200 is reasonable for a basic 1 page set up.) Then anyone who can write an email can blog like a pro.
THE ADVANTAGES

(Adding the actual ads to the site is simple . . . setting up the ad sense account is another story. Think similar to filing a 1040A)
Seniors

Create your own gadgets
Create multiple blogs that circle to each other.
Create individual pages on G+ that Blogger can publish your articles to the page of your choice.
To wrap up my overview of Blogger, I have added a variety of the gadgets to the bottom of my blog. For space reasons I have not re-sized them. Take a moment and scroll through. You don't need to be a programmer to add these, or know anything special about webdesign. Gadgets are so simple to add, just click, click, post.
If anyone is using Blogger, please share your experience.
