I can't really discuss future product plans on this blog but suffice to say we are very interested in the community building potential around blogs. One of the things we really like about the LiveJournal is its great community. We also recently announced a partnership with Friendster which integrates social networking with blogging in interesting ways.

Ian:

Thanks for the mention and thanks for persevering down to the end where this quote is pulled from. I think the part you cited is in many ways the meat of this matter for the blogging community. I probably should have put this part higher, but this was a complex post with more than one message.

Have you considered making community creation more a part of the typepad or MT products? I see it a little bit in livejournal.
