It's a great product as well and I think we'll use it for the "enterprise customer". For little 'ol me blog WP just seemed right. Beginning to think blog software is like choosing skis. Just like there's just no perfect "all-around" ski, there's no perfect all-around solution to blogging. You've got to have a quiver of them. Short softies to butter with, stiff carvers for the grooms, fatties for the powder. And a pair of Spatulas just 'cause...anyway this analogy is falling down now ;-) Awww...I'll just have to do a blog post on this now. Anyway, I'll still be using my TypePad account for family and other personal blogs. Gonna give VOX a spin too. Plenty of other blogs to start. Anil, I did look at Movable Type.

Just outta curiosity, as we're always working to improve, especially for our new work -- did you consider Movable Type for your blog at all? We're always looking for feedback on making a great tool for power users, and of course it's brought to you by the same team. :) Either way, good luck with your site!
