First random rant:

Blogger, why must you be so obtuse while trying oh so hard to look slick? Even simple changes to one's site can be painful.

Plenty of your features are dandy-- don't get me wrong. But some pretty simple things require advanced yoga training.

Separately, GIMP. You make me want to cry sometimes. Your UI is unuseable. Click on one tool, go back to the image window, and the tool suddenly reverts to its last one. Double click it? Sometimes that works.

For such a powerful, empowering tool, you have an interface only an engineer can even tolerate. This is an example of how software developed in a bubble is unuseable.
