So after taking over one blogging platform and mothballing it (Blogger), then wiping out a host of 200X startups with Google Reader and _then_ killing Google Reader, which effectively killed RSS... after all that Google has woken up to the fact that the last source of independent content, that's not big-media-owned or stuck in a walled garden like FaceBook is Wordpress?
And back in 2007ish I remember bloggers crying out to Google for help with some tools /APIs to help combat comment spam and Google basically ignoring it, leading to the eventual death of blog comments and blog based discussion.
Looking at all that, it's great to finally see Google trying to support bloggers - the people that have delivered some of the most interesting content in their index.

Or am I too jaded?
