Despite the rather negative stance of many bloggers against Blogger (or Blogspot) given its many limitations and uhmm… spam blogs, a large number of bloggers still use Blogger - a service which is pretty effective for many purposes, and is ultimately free.

If you need more Drupal themes than are provided at the Drupal CVS, the Drupal Theme Garden, or even the Drupal theme generator, you can now check out coffee.geek.nz’s Drupal template repository.
