Blog Usability for Readers
There's a lot of discussion in the blogosphere about how the general infrastructure and applications can improve for bloggers. Probably because bloggers understand the problems that the tools pose and each one has a soapbox at their disposal. Readers don't have this luxury - they don't always understand the tools and they don't always have a soapbox available. Even if they did, would the soapbox suit their needs?

Actually, a lot of thought has gone into the design of tools like MT, which you're using here, to ensure that (so long as users stick at least loosely to the default templates), the resulting pages will be usable.
In my experience, the usability factor tends to be higher on blogs, rather than lower.
