LIvedigital takes hours to load on my linux/DSL setup, and the "post" page invariably comes up with an incomprehensible (to me) error message, which their "support" has never gotten back to me about, after months of questions and, ultimately, complaints. Furthermore, the only "comments" my site has garnered there have not been germane to what i was writing, just people spamming me to promote their own blogs. So far, wordpress seems a lot more user-friendly.

Blogs are being moved over to LiveDigital and you should (atleast according to them) be able to carry on with the new LiveDigital version of your blog.

Though i have to admit they arent exactly the best looking blogs in the world lol

Use that.
