Chip (12:32 PM): i thought you'd be the best person to ask about starting a blog! 
Steve Garfield (12:32 PM):  I am
 Steve Garfield (12:32 PM):  shoot
 Chip (12:33 PM): ok 
Chip (12:33 PM): where do i start? 
Chip (12:33 PM): is it easy to upload images and video? 
Steve Garfield (12:33 PM):  do  you have a hosting service
 Chip (12:34 PM): not any more 
Steve Garfield (12:34 PM):  ok so there are a few options
 Steve Garfield (12:34 PM):  if you want to try out a blog for free you can go to blogger.com 
Steve Garfield (12:35 PM):  then you can use a free web app to load images and post them to your blogger blog
 Steve Garfield (12:35 PM):  flickr.com is a great way to do that
 Chip (12:35 PM): cool 
Steve Garfield (12:35 PM):  then when you want to host video, you'll need to decide where, archive.org is a free place for video
 Steve Garfield (12:36 PM):  and they are going to be coming out with a new url for video ourmedia.org in the next few months
 Steve Garfield (12:36 PM):  so that's the free way of testing the waters
 Steve Garfield (12:36 PM):  other things to consider would be typepad.com 
Steve Garfield (12:36 PM):  and blogware.com 
Steve Garfield (12:36 PM):  those cost money and I use both of them too
 Chip (12:37 PM): damn, you're good 
Steve Garfield (12:37 PM):  clear and consice
 Chip (12:37 PM): you saved me many hours of surfing
