Which of these things is not like the other?

Well my first foray into the land of blogs was on wordpress. I know blogspot was listed on the sheet we all got in class but wordpress came up during conversation about blogsites and I thought I'd venture out and try something different. But as I'm new to this whole game and not sure how to actually navigate blogs, I realized this wasn't really the time to be different. This was the time to follow instructions. So my first blog has died after only being live for four hours - may it rest in peace.
