At the launch of MSN Spaces, several themes were available. Now, there are over 100 themes from which to choose. New blog entries are e-mailed by cell phone or computer. This is ideal for members wanting to post entries because the MSN Spaces domain is blocked by web filters.

To prevent spoofing, it is best if users do not give out their MSN Spaces e-mail address. Another way to post a new blog entry is to send an SMS. The service requires a UK phone number.
