I think that you have to write differently for websites / blogs / forums than you do for essays / books / magazines.
Often, writing for the moment is the best way to do it, as it's what the people want to read.
sure the posts will still be there, but how many people are going to go back in a years time to re-read something that was only relevant for a brief period of time?
I do agree with you that comments make blogs become more "alive" so to speak.
It's always interesting, or at least it is to me, to know what people think about something I've posted, whether it be good or bad criticism.
Still, good writing, as you say is timeless. There's absolutely no need for us to be sloppy about what we write. I often write things down on paper before even touching the keyboard.
Some good point to take on board

When you say "how many people are going to go back in a years time to re-read something that was only relevant for a brief period of time?" you touch exactly upon my point. There's content we write that is for the moment but there are also times where we write for a lifetime. Content that is still applicable in a year from now. I am trying to find a way to separate these two and make it easier for readers to find it.
