Dave Winer sounds the warning bells. "Will AOL's equivalent of the "Blog This" button in their IM user interface work with Radio, Movable Type, Manila or Blogger? Or, more likely, will it just work with their blogging software? For all we know AOL took the high road, that would be unique and very cool, and would set the bar high. But I'd bet against it." Microsoft is next, he warns, with a "gated weblog community" and hence blog software vendors should "circle the wagons."
