Site Stuff

So, I'm trying to decide how to archive my writing. I have two options (well, three, but I'm ruling out the 'plain HTML' that I've been using so far).

-- Option 1: An archive script.
Pros: Has things built in, like chaptering and searching by word count.
I can run it on site, once I clear up a database.

-- Option 2: A journal.
Pros: Many people already use them, so they'll see updates automatically, without me having to make a feed.
Comment threading -- I like being able to have a conversation about my fics.
Tags.
If I write something for a community, I can link to my archived copy, rather than the one on my journal -- keeping all comments in one place.

What does everyone else think? I'm leaning towards a journal.
