Okay - so it is quite easy and all that but i still need to do it, check and test theme, upgrade and test all the plugins and so on. In fact, the last upgrade broke my theme! But a hosted alternative is no good either, for reasons that you mentioned :( I've also considered going back to blogger but gave up the idea. I considered it because the hosted version of blogger gives more flexibility (in terms of adding acripts etc to themes) and i get an option to do static publishing to my web server.

I think Wordpress.com is so limited that anyone with a little self-respect (or vanity?) has to either pay for the premium features, or move somewhere else. Although I work for Escenic, I use Wordpress for my personal blog, on my own server. In case you're interested, I have listed some plug-ins I think are useful here: http://automagisk.no/blog/about/ I'm not sure what to say about Clay Shirky's blog (http://www.shirky.com/weblog/), but it's pretty clear that content IS king :-) Interesting to see that you have almost the same experience as me.

You can whack up a WP on your own server, theme it, do some posts and you're done in an hour or two, I can't stop recommending it.
