Great site!
While technically not a "blog", it is forum based with a portal. Not to say that hinders the uniqueness of it. I keep genealogy herald in my feed lineup, and check in on the new posts now and then. The site webmasters do a good job with upkeep it looks like, and sakasumi seems to know her stuff too. The simple design of it makes things easy to browse, and not cluttered with a lot of extra junk.
Overall, I gave it a 5 because of the design, uniqueness, and ease of use. However, I think it needs more content, but seeing as it is still somewhat new, that can be taken lightly. I've yet to register there, but am making some time to do so, want to get in and post my stories soon.
