Very interesting.  A quick check of iBlog's popularity on weblogs.com shows that it already has a whopping 12% marketshare (at least for those weblogs that ping weblogs.com).  I personally think that a weblog tool and aggregator that sits on the desktop is a killer combo.  Here's why:

1) It offers the ability to integrate into other desktop applications (in this case:  iPhoto).

2) Installation and operation is fast (faster than the Web) and easy.

3) The application can leverage the desktop's CPU and O/S.

A slick package for Microsoft is next and then the tool debate is all over. [John Robb's Weblog]
