Hmmm.. my diskspace in Friendster full already. So now cannot upload pics or anything to my blog plus Friendster got a lot of limitations.

I planned to migrate my beloved diary to somewhere else. I'm web designer so i know some coding & i got design skill. I love to uploads a bunch of pics... recently would like to add in some audioclip as well... any suggestions?

preferable to have customizable blog features...

If you planned to use free blog , I suggest blogspot.

other than that , get your own hosting rclxms.gif

You should get a paid web hosting. Doesn't cost much and you get to choose ur own domain name

I would have to say as well the closest blog you'll get to those requirements is Blogger or a personal webspace of your own.

For the audioclips, I think you'll need to find another way to host them on Blogger later because they don't have such a feature as of yet.

In terms of customizable blog features, I assume you want to customize the design and layout a little. Well, Blogger can do that though I think now they're more strict of using XHTML.

Exabytes is a local hoster and this means we might need to register in near future!!!
Just kidding, I don't think our government is not that free to do all these things....

I am confident of our government... blush.gif

i would recommend blogger since you want to be able to customize your blog

but for user friendly wise actually http://www.wordpress.com is very godo too, i love their picture uploading and link inserting feature, bad thing is you have to pay a certain amount to be able to customize your blog template

just get your own webhost. It doesn't cost much nowadays. For a mere RM100 per year, you get like 3GB of space or something. That amount in exchange for peace of mind and not tied to any blogging host and all.

Personally, I have tried blogspot and friendster. Must say that both sucks. They are slowwwww especially friendster.

Get your own webhost and install wordpress. Since you are a webdesigner yourself, you should be able to get the site up and running in no time. Good luck and update us when it's up.
