Blogging is all very well if you've a single point to express (as I have here). Communicating multiple points of view on a topic is harder. Distinguishing each perspective with a single voice is tricky. We naturally (i.e. unconsciously) try to associate a single POV with a specific voice. [Which perhaps is why Plato wrote dialogues.]
Maybe the answer is 'conversational blogging': i.e. using two or more voices at once. As far as I know no software yet supports this directly. Emulation is possible: e.g. use a forum with two or more open browser tabs, each logged in as a different user.
Pity most forum software is unnecessarily hard to read, loading the page with dates and times and thumbnails and signatures and other oft repeated stuff...
Time for some research.
