For future reference, an interview with Evan Williams on the future of blogging and moving to Google over at cnet.com.
Q: Isn't blogging just creating Yahoo's GeoCities all over again, for which people have their own home page and post whatever they like, including links and their personal thoughts? If someone had a GeoCities home page now, they'd likely be looked at as silly.
A: It's a lot like those home pages. While GeoCities isn't cool, it isn't a bad thing. It did a great thing--enabled great people to instantly publish to the Web. This is the next evolution of that. Publishing was harder with some of the earlier tools, but it fits with personal expression.

Since MT-Blacklist inexplicably stopped working I had no other recourse than close comments and trackbacks to stop the spam. I've been meaning to correct this for quite a while, but life got in the way... in a good way I should add.
