I have been using Google for my Web Based notebook Blog
for a few years, however, it did not have all the features I wanted to

I also looked at WordPress, but I wanted a Java only solution. You are

I am going to point out how easy it was to install in a simple Java Servlet engine like Jetty, without a full Application Server. The Roller instal docs say that all it needs is a servlet engine, but then it goes on to only have examples for installing in full J2EE Application Servers (JBOSS, Tomcat, Websphere).
I use Jetty 9 on its own, without a full App server, and it was very easy to get going. My production DB is MariaDB (mySql) on Fedora 23.
