Interesting points, and it's wonderful that we can use blogs for other purposes and that they can evolve over time. I think people get hung up on the tech stack of a blog, so while I appreciate the timeline, I think we put too much emphasis on that in general.. Personally; have one sole purpose for my blog: to turn the arguments you conclude in the shower into something productive. It's somewhat cathartic to write down in as many words as you want to, with as much time as you want to: the actual underpinning arguments of a stance you hold, with citations and alternative opinions considered. Writing a comment on HN is nice, but largely there's a time pressure, wait a day for a good response and the conversation has concluded... or, make it too long and you lose your audience. A blog post allows you time to reflect, not be reactive, and to truly get your point across, and people are more likely to read it.
