It would look somewhat like proboards/PHPbb forums, maybe a little more frutiger aero-esque. All my design elements would be mostly meant to look like 98 to 2005 tech when blogs took off. There would be no endless scrolling anywhere, everything would be paginated. I'd have Web Share API buttons but mostly just rely on the sharing features in the browser. You'd post your posts as threads, and those threads would have all the usual tagging and calendar view stuff one might expect a blog to have, and you'd be able to use HTML/CSS to theme at the blog or individual post level, and use hyperlinks. You'd be able to download everything you posted, and move it to another instance if it went down , which would be important since I wouldn't be hosting it myself in this perfect world of blogs Everything would be digitally signed, so you could import someone else's posts from a different server if you wanted to comment or just archive them, and they'd appear as they originally did, verifiably unchanged.
