Infoworld says Google is planning to integrate Blogger with Gmail to ease blogging barrier.

Google also plans to add native image upload support and enterprise privacy features to Blogger. Last week Google added Blogger Mobile, making it easier for Blogger users to moblog.

Integrating email posting and image uploading to Blogger will make things easiers for users of Blogger - but I’m surprised Google still has not implemented some of the basics of blogs, trackbacks and categories.
