I concur that the Wardrip-Fruin experiment and the article about the
experiment indicate that blog review is a complement, not a substitute, for
peer-review.  My own comment: in the age of social media where anyone can
publish original material or comments on the Web, shouldn't publishers be
emphasizing their role of providing expert "context" for information in
their chosen subject areas?
