Tripod Blogs better than Blogger?

PC Mag has rated Tripod Blogs higher than Blogger, Live Journal and Weblogger in a review published today that is bound to attract criticism. Lycos is trumpeting its win with a release to Yahoo! Finance, although the Blog Census figures would indicate that the wider Blogosphere would not agree with this decision.

There are hints of some bias in the reviews with Blogger being attacked for its use of advertising in its free service, yet the Tripod review does not mention that this service has twice the advertising featuring on Blogspot sites (in fact it did not mention advertising in the Tripod review at all).

Please feel free to post your thoughts here as to what you think: Tripod v Blogger and others, are you all rushing off to use Tripod?
