Some of the concerns and resolutions suggested for weblogging in the future
(though, admitedly biases towards education)
1. Userability - especially posting and saving content (prevent it's loss)
2. Setup concerns - the complicated nature of users/educators setting up their site
3. Syndication - this issue is paramount for me; that educators can easily roll together varying content
4. Look and Feel - whether this is css/html or web-based, my concern is certainly the issue of educators (and general users) moving from a simple text-based interface (read blogger) to the kind of 'site' that most folks want - text, photos, multimedia, and look and feel.
Another thing for schools is scaling to many users and directory integration (LDAP, Active Directory, etc) without an exponential leap in administrative complexity. That is, if blogging is to be a school-wide project rather than class level. How many 1500 user Movable Type installations are there?
