For me blogging takes place on
http://blog.environmentalchemistry.com and are opinion pieces, comments, etc. about current news events, etc. that are primarily written by myself. Articles are published on
http://EnvironmentalChemistry.com and are hard reporting and researched papers that I have commissioned. These articles are fully cited and are written by scientists, researchers and professionals who have specialized knowledge on the subject. My articles are the types of articles you might find in a science magazine. A further differentiation is that my articles tend to be timeless while my blog posts are timely. I might take an hour or two to research and write a blog entry, but the articles I publish take many hours of research conducted over several weeks.
More simply put, there is a huge editorial difference between my blog posts and the articles I publish; as well as a massive difference in cost (free for blog posts vs. hundreds of dollars per article).
