I don't know much about Blogger, but as it's a SAAS, how customisable is it? Can you host your own PHP pages, can you do really what you want with the theme?

I think there are differences to consider between hosted blogs and blog scripts you can actually install on your own server and customise the way you want.

Am I right?

you're correct. the differences between wordpress and blogger are vast. you've mentioned the big ones already.

blogger is...

- easy to setup

- hard to customize

- limited in terms of features / plugins (if any)

- hosted as a service

How about vs posterous? (Sorry, I should have included it in my first post, but I forgot the name.)
never used posterous, but it looks more similar to blogger than wordpress. well suited for churning out a simple blog.
