Blogs: If we had them would you use them?

True. Social groups was rolled into the default vBulletin package like a year ago. A buddy list has been there quite a while, 3.7 just expanded on it a bit. I keep telling vB how poorly implemented the social features are, supposedly they're supposed to be fixed in 4.0 which brings me to the new licensing structure and why I asked about blogs. Basically the licensing structure has changed when 4 is released we can wither go with the same forum we've had or get the vBulletin suite.
The suite is basically setup to power a whole site with pages and all different kinds of content and includes member blogs (which used to be a paid addon) instead of a naked forum like we have now. I'm trying to figure out if the suite is worth it for us or to just keep the naked forum or go with another system.
Let me change my answer.... YES, I would use them for about 2 weeks, and then, knowing me, when I decided that I wasn't getting what I wanted out of them in terms of appearance, I would stop posting.
No, I already keep up with 3 of my own...
scratch that, I already neglect 8 of my own blogs...
What would be a better alternative, if you could use a plug in that pulls the feeds of some of our current blogs and if the users hear want to read the article, they can click on it....
what's the reason for adding user blogs to this forum?

lol I neglect plenty of my own too.
No reason specifically to add user generated blogs to ODJT other than they will be available with vBulletin 4 if I upgrade to the suite instead of just a naked forum. I'm trying to weigh weather or not to drop the extra $$ on the suite or just keep it as is or possibly with a new Wordpress powered front end. We can already pull RSS feeds, in fact we do on a few now inactive blogs. If there's much interest we can have a new forum for member's blogs outside of ODJT.
