    I’ve read the blurb but still can’t work out which would be the best way to set up another blog? Should I create another user name so that I can have a different gravitar? I do get easily confused, so I have to try and avoid that. The blogs aren’t really connected, but as far as I am concerned it would be brilliant for people to go from one to the other. However they are quite different in content. I would be grateful for any advice on this from users.

    The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

    If you use a single user name then this name will link to only one blog; if you respond to comments in your second blog the name will link to the first. On the other hand it is a lot easier to deal with one sign-on rather than two.

    As long as you don’t want to keep one ‘secret’; then just start it with the same username is my advice. A personal brand can be strong.

    I agree with the others. I don’t like to have many accounts for the same thing or service. I makes things more complex.
