Rafat Ali of Paidcontent had the scoop last night that AOL was acquiring Weblogs, Inc.
Now we’ve got Jason Calacanis confirming the sale/purchase.

Blogebrity actually has the best round-up.
Long story short: the whole blogsphere is abuzz [Technorati].
I have one slightly selfish question. Since I work for a Time Warner business unit, a certain Very Funny cable network, does that give me an in for potentially writing for TV Squad now?
UPDATE: Problogger has deal details, while Rexblog and Ed Bott see the potential downsides of the deal.
I think all those bloggers need raises, Blackberrys and free AOL accounts, so I guess I’m in the same camp as Rex and Ed on this issue.
Do right by Weblogs, Inc. AOL!
