Need a blog Please help

[mshiva]

I am planing to set up a "news" blog, where I will report the happenings in and around my neighbourhood, I also expect
people to comment over the articles I publish. The blog should support Unicode fonts, and Indian languages.
Can someone guide me to the right choice?

I am completely new to the concept of blogging, so please suggest me something that is user-friendly.

Thanks...

Wordpress is a good blogging software in my opinion. You could try it out.

Try something like Blogger, that could be handy because your a 1st time user.

If you have good free hosting, download code Bo-Blog at http://www.bo-blog.com ^.^ Version for China and English, Vietnamese.

If your host uses cPanel and has Fantastico, install one using fantastico.

What are your goals with the blog? If you just want a simple blog, try Blogger or Livejournal.

If you want to build a website and maybe later add content, I have Fantastico that can install the scripts for you in just a few clicks.

It's all up to you - there are tons of options!
