  2. This chart explains a lot, but is based on the free wordpress.com-hosted blog setup. Mainly WordPress is more powerful and lets you easily use third-party plugins, but blogger is a little simpler to use, and makes it a little easier to customize one's design. When one host one's own WordPress blog, one get a little more flexibility than when one hosts it on wordpress.com. Personally, I mainly just wanted to host my blog on my own domain (which one can do with blogger), but while I was at it, switching platforms wasn't so difficult so I did that too.
