This site is built
using Microsoft Office Live. I chose this because they
were offering free domain names at the time (they've now stopped doing
that), so it was an easy way to get a free domain name with hosted web
pages and email (through Hotmail).
I customised the site to get
it to look as I wanted, rather than using the standard Office Live
templates and themes. For more information on how I did this, check out
the post on my Technology
blog.
I run my blogs using Blogger,
as it's very easy to set yourself up with a blog and get started.
