His speaking, his books and interviews. His blog is almost a place for existing followers to find him. Guaranteed most of the people reading the blog have either heard him, seen him or read a book first. I had never even given him a second thought until i saw him on TED, i think... or maybe it was a podcast interview. I think his real strength is in explaining something simply and dynamically. Either on paper or in person. His ‘branding’ is really himself. His speaking, his books and interviews. His blog is almost a place for existing followers to find him.

I'm heading in the same direction myself soon - the blog format is great for articles and internal pages but not so good for a home page that has to explain clearly and quickly what you are about. Unless you have a really strong personal brand like Seth Godin and your site can just be your latest blog posting with almost no supporting explanation.
