Ease of use: Very simple account setup, and blog submission.
Time to setup: A few minutes
Time to maintain: Just a few minutes as well – that is, unless you get involved in the community. And then only you can judge time required.
What you need to know: It's a good idea to fill out your profile information, with avatar and details. Remember, this isn't just a search engine. Interact with the community and you can promote your site even more.
Bottom line: Certainly worth the few minutes to submit. It's questionable if there will be a return on time invested into the community side, but does everything need a ROI? The social side of the site will teach you about having a successful blog, and you'll make some great contacts.
