There's lots of tools around nowadays that allow you to build a site that doesn't conform to the blog format, but the old web hasn't really made a comeback. I think there is truth in the author's statement: > Here’s the crux of the problem: When something is easy, people will do more of it. writing up whatever daily musing into a short-form article is much easier than carefully organizing and categorizing an entire library of work, so there will be more of that around. Writing a 140 character update on your social feed is even easier, so there will be more of that. The old web hasn't totally disappeared, by the way. It's just much harder to find in a sea of other content that has grown much faster. And blogs are only a small part of that. SEO advertising clickbait spam sites are drowning out a lot of content on the web, because they are extremely low effort and there's money to be made in them.
