I am a huge fan of Classblogmeister and have used show many teachers how to use it. I find it easy and no student emails are needed since it was designed to be a tool for elementary school children. David Warlick provides awesome tech support and is very responsive to feature requests. The Yahoo user group is one of the best reasons to use CB. That being said, I just signed a class up for 21classes.com. I like the clean and simple layout. The class I signed up are a group of middle schoolers who want to develop a school newspaper. Their teacher/coordinator likes the online component because news articles can always be current. I also like 21classes because nowhere on the portal is the term "BLOG" - which might freak people out as our community is very unfamiliar with web 2.0 applications in education.
