Dave Winer: "We're close to closing on Blogger [on the weblogs.com hotlist], they had a head start, so I feel good about that." One thing to note: The weblogs.com hostlist includes only those weblogs that have registered with weblogs.com (by my understanding). Manila users (UserLand customers) seem much more likely to register with the UserLand service than Blogger users. So I feel really good about that. :)
