Guy at work is retiring and we thought it would be nice to register him a Blog so we can monitor his ongoings from a safe distance :-)

I'm ok with registering a web domain but how do I go about setting up a simple blog? Are there recommended places? Cheaper the better and all that.

I installed a blogging script called Nucleus on my domain. I think it's probably quite similar to a lot of blogging scripts. Once it's installed its very easy to use. I use the domain for other stuff though, so the hosting I pay for doesn't go to waste entirely.

I'm not really an afl regular, just a lurker:

is how my blog looks, that's pretty much the standard skin, just a couple of layout bits here and there have been changed.
