You noted: "I was defining conversation in terms of one-with-one interaction, but a blog is a one-with-many conversation, with comments amplifying the 'one' to 'many' voices."
...And that's why I consider weblogs to be a type of "conversational media" -- which is media that leverages mass communication to allow the audience to converse directly with the author and with each other.
