I was a little confused why the original question suggested 'o<ESC>', instead of just 'o'. <ESC> has nothing to do with adding a new line. If you're already in insert mode, then simply hitting 'return' (twice, if you're not on the beginning/end of a line) will work just fine - similarly to pretty much any other editor, If you're not in insert mode, then 'o' will add a blank line. I would say that, since *I* normally continue typing on the new blank line, 'o' is 'easiest' - no 'esc' necessary. If you want to return to command line, then press <ESC> as normal.
