People are often wary about starting "something completely different", as Monty Python's saying went. That's also true when it comes to new technologies and new uses of technology. While blogs caught on monumentally, many are still in the dark about what they are, how much work it takes to start one, and so on.
The best bet is to start simple. I started with Google's Blogger because of Google's reputation for clean and easy to use interfaces. I have not been disappointed. The new Blogger (now out of beta) is no exception. They have made the drag and drop layout interface very easy to use.
Another aspect of blogs is their design. Free templates for your favorite blogging service, such as Blogger, are readily available online. Of course, each blog service usually provides a small variety of decent ones to start with (like this one from Blogger).
But beyond that, it's a good idea to seek tips on both design. So I did a – yep, you guessed it – Google Search for blog design tips, which yielded a ton of potential jewels.
