But, free hosted Wordpress blogs don't allow any kind of advertisements which I can't deal with. Great Post out there!

For instance, Akismet is for WordPress only, so a WP.com API key may not be useful to you for that reason, however having a blog on WP.com does give you the ability to increase the popularity of your blogger blog a little bit. @Pratek, Technically you could take advantage of most of these benefits with a blogger account as well, its just that you wouldn't have the same level of integration.

It's also required to use the Top Commentators plugin which is a great way to encourage more blog comments.

I had not investigated the Open ID feature, but after reading about the advantage of using it, I think I will investigate it further.
