"By" is certainly the most fitting for anyone who simply wants to put
their work out there - it's essentially functionally equivalent to
public domain, no?

by-nc-sa and by-sa incompatibilities suck and have turned me off both
simultaneously and by-sa changes in version 3.0 haven't made them any
less incompatible.

So, yeah, just attribution seems the most sensible to me. But I'm also
curious if anyone has ever actually made a derivative of a blog (which
wouldn't be covered under fair use, i.e., isn't just quotations) ;).
