I think those of us that remember the Internet from 20 years ago think of Blogger as the company and CMS and blogspot.com as merely the hosting domain.
- Aachen 3y agoFew people would refer to Google's analytics tool as Urchin though, and that has been fewer than 20 years Blogger seems to not have been on my radar though I was around then, and is such a generic word that imo it's not a clear name to use when Blogspot is also available and everyone knows it

- aendruk 3y agoFor another perspective, I’d have told you that what I formerly published my blog with was Blogger, with no thought about the blogspot domain name. I think of the latter as just the fallback they offered for people without their own hosting.
