To be honest... I didn't know you had a blog. Sorry. When I log in, I browse through all the individual sections. From then on, I tend to stick to the New Posts page. (A habit I think I need to break myself of.) And since the latest blogs entry is on the bottom of the main forums page...I usually never get all the way down there to look at it. Haven't looked at it for a while. So it's not just you in that case, it'd be me and not paying attention to that area.

However, if you notice, you'll see you get an average of over fifteen views per. That's fairly significant, considering the lack of focus on the blog system. I'd say that's significant, wouldn't you?

Now, for suggestions on how to improve:

Keep it to one a day. Absolute max. Less could be more, being able to pack more relevant information in one post. More relevance = more prominence. If you feel the need to add something, consider either putting it off until the next blog post, or just edit the previous one to shoehorn it in.

Titles. Must use titles. If you do it right (as in not generic), it helps show your creativity and innovation, as well as draw attention. Just a date...doesn't. Also, references to things in popular culture, shadowed or otherwise, can be very good. Just don't make them absolutely blatant. Discreet but applicable is good in this situation.

Expound. Go in-depth. Believe me, it really helps. Make sure you say why something is relevant to you, and by extension that helps explain why it's relevant to other people. Add details. Be specific. It makes the whole thing a lot more interesting. (You have done this in places, but it could stand to be a bit more regular.) However! Don't overdo it. Overly gratuitous information just gets unwieldy, and can be rather uninteresting in comparison to lack of detail, but still concise.

Nothing else comes to mind for now, so I'll leave it at that. However, you've been having a pretty good blog so far. Just keep it up, and make it better. Which means you can get more response. Which means that you're more motivated to keep it up and make it better. Which... Well, you get the point, right?
