I am looking for help identifying any blockchain based forums or blogging platforms.

Qora is the only one I know of. I believe it allows you to have that, at least you could create your own page on their blockchain.

IIRC, CIYAM forum was designed to be blockchain-based, but don't know details: http://ciyam.org/open/

"How is Bitcoin used here?
Bitcoin, in the sense of the digital currency, is not used at all. However, the Bitcoin protocol and the implementation of the neat idea of block chain is on the basis of twister. The block chain provides a sort of distributed notary service, certifying who owns a given nickname. The name is associated with a specific key pair, which is used for authentication and cryptography."

There was discussion about reddit doing this and converting their karma system into a blockchain based token. I think the guys at voat.co (http://voat.co) were considering it too. Sounds like a good idea at first but I haven't really thought about the details.

Edit: While not blockchain based, aether (http://getaether.net/) is a p2p forum. Here is the github repository (https://github.com/nehbit/aether-public).

A few of the CIYAM team help out with Qora. We've also contacted several of their C++ dev's about the recent inquiries here.

STEEM!
yes, I think it should be pretty obvious at this point that this was early "market research" for steem.

It may not be yet, depending on your definition, but I think that's one clear goal for it.
