Blogspot user interface is not very intuitive or clear. There are a number of situations where what should be the obvious thing to do, is not the right thing to do.
Here I have some answers which I post recently on Blogger user help forum. I have answers for only the more basic, first time user problems. Please post questions on more complex problems on the forum and wait for answers from our Blog*stars.

Post editor
Q: Where is my post editor?
A: Please enter your ID and password here: www.blogger.com On your dashboard, click on new post or edit post. A new window opens. This is your post editor. If you do not see a full list of icons, click compose.
Much good advice you have here, David. But isn't it worth it to own your own dot com blog for the flexibility it allows? Is this more respected among certain blog niches?
Greg, Thank you for making all that hard work worth while. Please spread the word. Personally I do not believe in paying money to blog. A domain needs to be renewed every year, whereas a blogspot blog lasts forever and less hassle for the new bloggers.
A dot com blog address is definitely much easier for readers to remember. I believe that a business should use a dot com domain and even pay money for a professional to set it up.
Hobbyists/bloggers should stick with a blogspot blog. At least until they understand codes, feeds, templates, CSS, Javascripts etc...
