I would say that unless you are really serious about blogging, using
hosted blogging is even easier. Try blogspot
(http://www.blogspot.com).

As for setting up planet.sagemath.org, I tried to set it up on
sage.math.washington.edu last night but ran into this problem:

In [1]: import bsddb
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
<type 'exceptions.ImportError'>           Traceback (most recent call last)

/home/yqiang/<ipython console> in <module>()

/home/was/s/local/lib/python2.5/bsddb/__init__.py in <module>()
     49         from bsddb3.dbutils import DeadlockWrap as _DeadlockWrap
     50     else:
---> 51         import _bsddb
     52         from bsddb.dbutils import DeadlockWrap as _DeadlockWrap
     53 except ImportError:

<type 'exceptions.ImportError'>: libdb-4.1.so: cannot open shared
object file: No such file or directory


The planetplanet software requires the bsddb module.  Maybe someone
with more knowledge can resolve that issue on
sage.math.washington.edu.
