I am rolling out a new blog at the beginning of the new year, too. I’ll still be with blogger, but things will be different.

I too would like to know the new name.

There are several people who can help set up wordpress blogs. I'd personally go with a regular wordpress hosted blog unless you want to do more personalization with the html code.

The only thing I didn't like at first was that you couldn't insert things with flash or adobe or whatever (like a poll) but they are adding more and more things all the time.<br/><br/>My personal blog is with Wordpress. The BPOTW blog is with blogger. I decided to do a blogger blog too just to remain current with both formats. I have to say I like Wordpress better. I have gotten around the comment thing by creating a blogger account for my Not So SAHM identity. When I leave a comment on a blogger blog I'll sign in using that id. If the person clicks on my details all I have written there is that I have a wordpress blog and to check it out. I hope that makes sense.<br/><br/>I'd love to hear the idea of your new blog name.
