In general, the blog feature operates smoothly. The posting process itself is seamless, and the whole element is enhanced by integrated comment streaming. There are a few hangups, however, especially with thumbnails, which are only displayed on specific blog posts and cannot be seen from the main page. Overall, however, Squarespace’s blog is outstanding — probably the best blogging tool this side of WordPress.
