At the moment blogs have been failed about a few things: 1. Walled gardens (this include medium). Basically they've self decided that content should be here and they keep your audience there. Also, they tend to self select what opinions the community is to keep. This is a huge concern for freedom of expression. 2. The networks aren't there. We need a way to have neutral aggrigation and federating against many other blogs for commenting, replying, and annotation of existing content. (Give people a reward for being in a community, reddit does this with karma, but they also try to wall off the users) 3. RSS has been badly treated. This is a great standard for syndicating updates to your channel. 4. Build good networks to remove the spam. Basically the baby was thrown out of the bathwater rather than to fix the problem.
