I've been using that for my first blog, as a bit of an experiment. I'm now looking to develop a more professional blog and will be using wordpress for that (partly because of category support and partly because, as a php developer, I can modify it to a greater degree).

There's a small learning curve involved, but once you get into it it beats blogger hands down. I was with blogger for a while then I bit the bullet and went with WordPress.

I, Too, Have a Blog On Blogger: http://www.theoceanview.net/

I’m Even Doing Something Their That, I Can’t Do On “Spaces”!

I Use To Think That, Blogger Was “It”…

But, I Have To Tell You That, Now, “Spaces” IS The Ticket! …For Alotta Reasons!

“Spaces”, Now, Makes Blogger L@@K, Ancient! …Like The Way Blogging Was When It First Began!

If U Use “Spaces”, U’ll Soon Understand What I’m Talking ‘Bout!

More Later…

Aloha!

I've used Blogger on my own space, with my own domain and am now using Blogspot hosting for it. I've recently tried two other, also free, but more feature-rich hosted blogs, but I've come back to Blogger because it is easy and it's pretty flexible as well. The lack of labels, categories, tags or whatever we're calling them now is the most notable deficit with Blogger. That would stop a lot of people from trying to use it as a serious blog. Still,there are some high profile blogs out there with Blogspot addresses. I've also worked with Typepad, for someone else's project. It does have some limitations, but it's an excellent product. However, Blogger's price, as you mentioned, can't be beat. I think your comments are very much on the mark.
