That said, SB support in Drupal would still be neat (actually, all support is neat) and I hope to see it soon. The more people write SB content, the better the apps will be that are built onto it.

In this respect Drupal rocks. Currently with flexinode however its kind of dangerous as flexinodes are rather ugly in their backend storage structure. -- the more you know -- Drupal will be coming up with CCK which pushes flexinodes a step further… you end up with a cleaner implementation with widgets that you can throw together into any node type and you can search all of the widgets of the same types via one function.

I am not sure how much more of a need there will be for structured blogging with their introduction. The forthcoming CCK and Views modules will make Drupal truly rock.

It was very easy to setup, but like Sami Khan, I wouldn't suggest that the storage is ideal in someways. I wonder how it will scale, but otherwise, the thing it is great. I'm looking forward to CCK in 4.7 too. I'll be doing some performance testing before deploying it (or CCK) more widely ... which I'm definately thinking about doing.
