I was just checking out the posting for the latest branded blog by Weblog Inc and it really got me thinking about how intrigued I am by this concept. I love the idea of this network of blogs covering a variety of information in a formal fashion. However, there's just something missing for me. I feel like there should be more bang for the buck here than just the Weblogs inc link at the bottom of all the pages.

What about cross blog aggregated postings on different topics? How about "channels" that I can subscribe to on news from across them. I'm just thinking out loud here, but it seems they could be doing alot more with this.
