Mukul Kesavan was refering to the quality of writing on Indian blogs, not blogs as a medium. I can't believe you wrote a piece on the advantages of blogs in response. We all know what the advantages (and features) of a blog are.
One major disadvantage of blogs is that it allows people to get away with copy pasting content from other blogs and posting a link rather than generate any original ideas. India Uncut is a prime example of such a blog.
