They recently added groups which are really functional but limit communication to the masses. Their first level of forum is garbage about “how to pluck eyebrows” which their admins would rather have littering their main discussions rather than link requests which a probably more relevant seeing as most of the sites are PR3 and below. Personally I feel both services will be irrelevant after a while. Someone else is going to beat the pants off of MyBlogLog’s stats by offering up to the minute stats for free instead of $5 a month and BlogCatalogs admins will kill Blog specific communication, instead it will be a bunch of Mommy blogs that never get above a PR1.
well i didn’t get that Noheat ?

I am a huge fan of blog catalog, they are active and ready to help u out such as with subscribing, technorati exchange, leaving comments, etc. There are tons of groups u can join where everyone is ready and willing to jump in and help u out as long as u return the favor. I have really jump started my blog with this community. My blog log is not even on the same map in my eyes. They simply dont have it together when you try to compare. If you are a blogger and are trying to improve ranking and numbers, blog catalog is the place to be.

[...] First of all some big news, Blogcatalog has now surpassed MyBlogLog in traffic levels, if you believe Alexa data. They are in exactly the same niche, and share plenty of users, so whilst I don't trust Alexa data extensively, this is a significant achievement considering it wasn't long ago when people had trouble differentiating the two services.

Ugh is PrettyLady everywhere? She was pushed out of BlogCatalog so now she is mad, the end. I use both and why not. I pay for MyBlogLog to get excellent tracking and a occasional contact. I use BlogCatalog for the forums and the community, which is a little too controlled for my taste lately but there is occasionally some good stuff there. They recently added groups which are really functional but limit communication to the masses. Their first level of forum is garbage about “how to pluck eyebrows” which their admins would rather have littering their main discussions rather than link requests which a probably more relevant seeing as most of the sites are PR3 and below.

Someone else is going to beat the pants off of MyBlogLog’s stats by offering up to the minute stats for free instead of $5 a month and BlogCatalogs admins will kill Blog specific communication, instead it will be a bunch of Mommy blogs that never get above a PR1.

Thats my two cents, (can’t believe I say PrettyLady’s screen name on the internet again). I thought the internet banned her. ;)

I just discovered BC yesterday and had no idea what it was. I just following a link from another blog site.

By the time I was done registering and all, then of course I had no choice but to compare it to MBL.

I haven’t paid much attention to the details, but I do the like the layout and real members at MBL.

I get spam once in awhile and there a lot of money making type blogs out on MBL, but nothing I can’t handle. That’s just the nature of the blog beast.

At this point I’m not saying that one is better than another, I believe it comes down to personal choice and whatever you’re comfortable with.
