I have created a test site, and moved the blog channel under forums to have both forums, groups and blogs shown in the directory on the startpage. That might not have intended that we can do this, but I makes sense to display everything on the startpage directory instead of only forum. Now each blog is displayed as a "sub-forum" under blogs (just hope each 100.000 blogs are not shown here when I upgrade to live site).
Is it really a smart move to create a channel for each blog? Please tell me that there well thought out reason for doing it this way, and not just because it was easy. Mabye it would be smarter doing each blog as a thread, since blog posts already as equal to forum posts, and blog comments are limited to the quick comments also available in forum.
I appreciate any feedback you can give on this design issue and reasoning.
