I may not fully understand the Wordpress workflow, but I think this is a bit different in that it:
- Does not require wordpress (obviously), but more importantly
- Enables any member of the community to create their own “blog” within the forum just by using a well named tag (it assumes the community will self moderate to avoid using that tag for other topics).
In any case, it’s still early days for us, but we are seeing some success with this so far.
