Blogger Vs Wordpress

Well, I'm playing with both. I miss the plugins and extra functionality that a selfhosted WP blog offered, and am finding that Blogger seems to have a bit more of that capability built in to it than Wordpress.com.  This seems a little odd to me.  I'm still just getting started exploring the world of NOT having a selfhosted site, and can tell it will take a little getting used to.  I think it may be a fun and educational experience in it's own right.   Learning to do more with less.
