Blogger.com VS Wordpress.com

Important: Here we compared Wordpress.com and not Wordpress.org

Introduction:

     First speaking of blogger. It was developed in Pyra labs then later acquired by Internet giant Google. This is completely free blogging platform written in Python. It integrates with most of google services. I am using blogger for the past two years. It is very compact and comfortable.


     After speaking about Wordpress. It is developed by Automattic,Inc powered by opensource CMS(Content Management System) Wordpress written in php. It has very fine features such as landing page, sliders, etc. This is also a free platform but you have an option to get premium service too. I think this intro is good enough.
Now let compare their features.

Blogger Features:

  • Just one google account is good enough to do anything.
  • Integrates into your Gdrive, Photos,Google+.
  • E-mail feeds are very easy to setup with Google owned Feed Burner service.
  • Simplified user interface.
  • It has android app to create posts.
  • SEO friendly.
  • Custom domain can be added easily.
  • Code level work is possible(You can edit the source code of templates).
  • Easy crawl with web master tools.
  • Flat User Interface Design.
  • High availability of templates and support.
  • Completely free and highly customizable.
  • Its completely fast....


Disadvantages:

  • No way to develop templates in offline.
  • Editing & testing code is very difficult.
  • No sliders for images.
  • FeedBurner is dead slow in delivering feeds.
  • Landing page is impossible.


Wordpress Features:

  • It has Landing page.
  • Very beautiful user interface.
  • Attractive appearance and design.
  • Lot more feature than blogger.
  • SEO friendly.
  • It has slider for images.
  • Upgradable for pro level. 
  • It also has android and ios app.


Disadvantages:

  • Code level operation is not possible.
  • Other templates cannot be installed(uploaded) or you should buy it.
  • More features make it a bit confusing.
  • Little bit slow when compared with blogger.


Conclusion:

             If you are planning for future upgrade(Expansion) as appending on servers (Bit expensive). But on servers wordpress is very powerful. Actually it rules the web. If this is the case then Wordpress is good for you.

            Else If you are looking for fully free platform without any future upgrade the Blogger is the place where you should stay. Blogger can also perform pretty well without draining your pockets.

My Personal opinion: 

    After working with Blogger and Wordpress.com I feel Wordpress.com is deadly devil. But on the other end Blogger makes me feel comfortable. I too work with Worgpress.org sites which doesn't have any competitors.
   Due to this reason I wrote this as my first post....:-)

One of the best Torrent caching service.

Hi readers, It's been a long time since I made my last post on this blog. That's due to the migration of the blog to private servers.  Today I found a decent torrent caching service, which I have been looking for years. Initially, when I started, I couldn't find the services are really benefiting me. So I went with my own Virtual Private Server in Digital Ocean. I ran a five dollar per month instance for my torrent caching as well as a multipurpose server.  Of course, It has its pros and cons.  Pros: I was able to do anything I wanted. It served as a good multipurpose server. Relatively inexpensive. Cons: You need to be a computer geek for up and running. Even most of the things are automated, still few manual works have to be performed. It takes usual time for downloading unlike caching services(They can do it instantly). Finally, we have a hassle free torrent caching service  Seedr .  It is a free torrent caching servic...

2-Dimensional Array with Dynamic Rows and Columns.

In Programming many times we have to store and work  with the data. But choosing the right way of storing is important. Array is one of the most simple and effective way of storing list of data.Now we have to multiple array of data. Ohh! that sounds easy we can use 2 Dimensional Array. I agree 2 Dimensional array is suitable but I have arrays of variable lengths. So simply creating 2-D Array will not be efficient because I have to specify the column size as the highest of my arrays. So there will be lot of unused space. The good solution can be Dynamic 2D Array with variable columns. Also Array of vectors can also be used. But we are not discussing about STL. Algorithm: Create a ptr to ptr to ptr with the name of your 2D Array to hold the Array of Pointers. Now create an Array of pointers depending on the no of rows and store the base address on the ptr to ptr. For every Row allocate the required memory and store the address in the array of pointers. You own the 2D...

Merge Sort Implementation in C++

For a Programmer sorting is an easy task after writing the code for couple of pages. But there are many other sorting algorithms.  The question which is not being properly answered is which sorting algorithm you should choose.  This is the most frustrating situation where we feel bad about us. The best sorting algorithm depends only on the scenario in which you are intended to use.  Let us speak about the Merge sort. Merge sort uses the divide and conquer approach. Entirely the merge sort is an easy algorithm (Depends on the way you think). You cannot master merge sort until you think what is happening. It has a good worst case performance (0(N logN)). It uses an additional space to accomplish the goal. The implementation is mainly based on the recursion.  You can get real performance benefit when comparing to bubble,selection sort. That's enough for the quick intro. If you would like you know more do a research on yourself. The algorithm goes like th...
