Even after years, some suddenly disappear, like pimpis.com or justwank.com, two pretty early birds.

Thanks for the advice. I've always focused on building high-quality blogs on my own hosting and thought free hosted was a waste of time.
However, I've heard people who know more than me say that free hosted blogs are good for feeder traffic and SEO. I'm definitely not investing the same kind of time/effort into free hosted blogs as my hand-written ones.
