Feature	Posterous	Blogger	Wordpress
automatic posting to Twitter, other blogs, social networks	yes, many services	not possible	a few services (Twitter, Faceboox, Yahoo Updates, Messenger Connect)
search engine positioning of your posts	poor	good	best
Creating a Draft on the Mobile	click the tiny "i" to mark the post as private. Later, when on the web, edit the post options (top right in a light gray, next to media) to make the post public.	click "Save as Draft"	set status as "Draft" before saving
Editing a Draft on the Mobile	not possible	straightforward	straightforward
Drafts when Editing on the Web	Save (don't publish yet) and then click Cancel. When warned about unsaved content, accept to leave the page.	Click "Save", not "Publish Post".	While composing, set the status to "Draft".

Browsing the web for information, I stumbled across a blog post by novel writer Emlyn Chand:  Which is better, WordPress or BlogSpot? See how they stack up here . The bottom line is: both have different strengths, it depends on your goal.
