Ad me tot he list of 'WordPress Curious"

I'm on Blogger at the moment, and while I can get it to do what I need, so much of it needs to be kludged together, that I'm starting to get a little annoyed.

James I'd like to get, perhaps offline, your impressions about the advantages of WordPress...
and some of the requirements. Blogger after all may have stunted by growth... and distorted my vision of what a blog shell should be.
