You can see blogs out there that are running both widgets in them --- pretty whacked. But BlogCatalog added in a forum discussion area that is very active and brings them all together in one place, rather than the shoutboxes on each users personal page. The Directory is superior also -- easy to locate blogs with. It is broken down by two user submitted categories and 12 keyword tags to help others find them. The search isnt bad either. Right now MyBlogLog is like a bare-boned 360 without a blog. Maybe they should look at merging the two and break out there own blogging service.

Its not hard at all... They aquired delicious a long time ago. Are they crazy? Sometimes i just can't believe it. I can’t avoid thinking why does yahoo did not integrate all services at once?

I signed up for an account and then promptly forgot the password. I sent in a request for a new password several times and never received a response (yes I checked my spam folder). I tried to create a new ID but since my blog was already in their system, I couldn't get a new account. Nice idea, but they need to take care of the fundamentals.

Something I'd like to see would be for Yahoo! to create blog search (has anyone ever heard them talk about this) and an option to integrate it into Yahoo! News so that one could get more diverse opinions. The mainstream public doesn't understand that blogs are driving news cycles yet and they aren't getting the joy of seeing these unfiltered voices.

It has somewhat like that reader feature since Bumpzee.com is segmented into different communities. It shows what is popular in your community and not only the blogs of your friends. This lets you discover new blogs you never knew before. A much more powerful feature.
