I think that it might be relevant as Photoblogs can be viewed as an online content management system for digital images.

I have developed my own photoblogging software for maintaining my own portfolio's on line. At some time in the future I may make this available to others, (if I get a month to productise it and can work out how to make it pay.) This is based on creating XML metadata representing the images. The big benefit is that as well as helping with maintaining your own websites the underlying metadata can be used in a syndication network increasing the availability of images. This may have a use in future systems for online stock portfolio sales.

I would have thought that tools for online content management, and image distribution and selling fell within the purview of a professional digital mailing list, though its more linked to the commerce side of photography than manipulating the bits of any given image.

Could you elaborate on this, as to why, as opposed to using a web site?

Blogs are widely read by the people creating them, but who else?
