Blogging Consolidation?

Thanks to Davextreme, I now have a standard, blog-compable Vox account. So with Kenjisan.com, allplainstapped on Live Journal, and now kenjisan.vox.com, that's three potential portals for internet expression and outlet, interestingly covering the spectrum of what Six Apart offers (all I need is a TypePad account and I'd be a true fanboy).

Each have their obvious strengths. If you're reading this, you are either bored already or know what they are, but really quickly: LJ offers a long standing, established blogger community (via Friends list), kenjisan.com offers a huge amount of customization with very little of the community aspect, and Vox is something of a happy medium that's just now starting up.

As far as having an internet voice, though, varying yet overlapping forms of communication don't seem to make a whole lot of sense. Sure, I could make the same posts on all three journals, but the assumption there is that I'm posting simply for everyone to read what I have to say, rather than spur discussion. If it's discussion that I'm after, then posting three places that don't share comments doesn't make much sense either. Another solution would be to use each for different types of posts. Another would be to abandon the old for the new.

Ah well, if this is my biggest problem, then life sure is sweet. For now, I guess I'll just have to make due (yes, I am that good ;) ).
