Don't Take Security Advice from SEO Experts or Psychics
As long as neverssl.com still exists so I have some way to pop up the login page from captive wifi portals, I'm fine with everyone else going SSL.<p>However, I basically agree that if you're just hosting a blog with no user interaction, there's really no need for it.  The threats (for example, somebody hijacks the request and returns different content) are minimal.
