You make a very good point. The blog is a sort of duplication of the Showroom section on the forums.
The good thing about the blog is that your blog is yours, and although people can comment on your posts - you get to manage everything on your blog, bit like your own personal webpage.
I'll post up a little 'how to' for those that are keen, and see if it takes off. otherwise it's easy to move those blog posts into a normal forum thread.
