I started a blog once. Updated it twice .

You should use the BoardsBlogs if you plan on creating one. http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/journal.php

Or I think you have an option to make a journal in your personal settings.

Subscription required.

As for how, go with Blogger or BlogSpot or something like that if you don't have webspace. If you do, then you can install pretty much any number of different packages.

I just use the free homepage I get as an MSN Messenger user. Seems practical.

Go with blogger. It's free and it's easy to deal with.

I've got a livejournal. And a deviantart journal type thing.

It's good for ranting. Taking topics and giving out about them. It's like a personal "listen to me talking, I'm important!" place. Probably highly narcissistic or somesuch, but I find it amusing and a good way to avoid doing real work.
