- Blogger is able to search for keywords within a certain journal
- Blogger is very simple and straightforward. (Good for first time bloggers)
- Blogger does not have ads
- You can post to Blogger using an LJ or other account
- Live Journal allows more freedom in creating your profile
- Live Journal has space for multiple icons, allowing users to chose an icon for each post and comment.
- Live Journal allows adding voice, polls and charts to the post from the post editor window
- Live Journal has a 'cut' feature for long posts
- Live Journal can adjust comment screening and permissions on a post to post basis
- Live Journal allows 'friends only' posting on a post to post basis
Blogger is very good for first time bloggers and the search feature is very helpful, however Live Journal give the user more freedom. (All points are based on the free account, a paid account has even more options and no ads.)

I personally like blogger more than livejournal, but I understand your affection for lj based on your previous experiences. I also understand the freedoms you see in lj vs. blooger. My affinity for blogger may be in the constriction of the site to specific blog entries. I use blogger to peruse musical blogs about african music and the like.
Why didn't I test LiveJournal?? It sounds terrific! I preferred Blogger over WordPress, so I'll have to check out LiveJournal (in my free time)...
