Hopefully this has given you a good insight into Blogs and set some expectations up front on what the blogging platform in SharePoint 2010 is all about.
I needed to understand the HTML structure of web parts in SharePoint 2010 and write jQuery and CSS that would add the functionality and look-and-feel we were looking for
At the Microsoft SharePoint Conference 2009, I had the distinct pleasure to present the Introduction to SharePoint Designer 2010 session. The early estimates are that over 1000 people attended that session. I personally had a real good time talking about SharePoint Designer since, aside from the facts that it’s my favorite tool to customize SharePoint and that I co-authored the book on SharePoint Designer 2007, so many enhancements have been made to this product that I didn’t have to use the “maybe this feature will be included in the next version” answer even once in the session Q&A! Awesome!
