If they remain a hosted solution they will hardly ever become as popular as wordpress. I wanted to use blogsmith as my personal blog platform but couldn’t find an installation package for myself.

Since it's hosted, I'm guessing that the content will be on another company's site (though I could be wrong, I haven't found/read enough to know for sure), and many (most?) business/blog owners want to control every aspect of their <acronym title="Intellectual Property">IP</acronym>; and rightly so... that content is the lifeblood of their blog. What I do know is that it will be very interesting to see a new competitor step into the hosted blog software scene and watch what the current players do to continue to attract and retain users.

I'm eager to see how it works with publishing to other sites. Since I can't find good (and easy to install) ASP blogging software, this might be a nice, professional alternative. Good points Chris.
