I've created a website, but decided against blogging. Blogging is fine when it
is personal, but I've seen people who post articles as blog posts, which
doesn't make sense. Articles and writing which aren't a log would be better
served categorised, tagged and sorted.

The blog format only works for news sites, opinion sites for current events,
and project status sites (which are just speciallized news, if you ask me).

There are writers publishing fiction in blog form, but I think the format does
not work well.

It's harder than it looks. it's hard to be good on radio.
We have a radio pair here that is great at talking sports, great at all the
online banter. When they interview a celebrity it is so horrible and cringe-worthy. They don't know what questions to ask. it's like 'what is your favorite color' type stuff.

they can get by coasting and sound like great friends with everyone at the station they talk with. it works for them.

I agree. There are very, very few blogs that I find are worth reading, and
those are usually artiles posted as if they were blog posts, rather than actual
blog posts.
