A Question

Those of you who've switched from Blogger to TypePad, how did it go? Do you like the new service? Were there any glitches? What would you have done differently? Were you able to transfer your archives to the new server, and was it easy or hard?

(I'm thinking of asking for a TypePad subscription for Christmas, but since that raises the probability of my family wanting to actually _see_ what they're paying for, I want to know if it'd be worth it.)

It's the idea of integrated comments and the ability to post pictures that appeals to me, along with the perhaps mistaken belief that a popular system is likely to stick around longer, that's making me lean toward TypePad. If there's another hosting system that seems to fit this description, I'd like to hear about it too.
