Both for Wordpress, they have a hosted service or you can download and install yourself. Blogspot/Blogger is Google's blog service.

IT's true!! China does copy products from the rest of the world. This computer is using a router called "TP-LINK"! Why does it have to sound so similar to "D-LINK"? Why couldn't it be another random word instead?

PPL use a program called QQ (something like that) instead of MSN, and QQ looks exactly just like MSN! LOL.. totally copied the layout and design.

QQ looks more like icq to me
