Is it difficult to integrate vBul with a blog system?

By integration I mean using vBulletin threads as the comment system for the blog.

For an example of what I'm looking to accomplish please see either http://www.macrumors.com/ or http://www.gottadeal.com

Yes, vbDrupal is definitely the way to go, though Drupal can sometimes be duanting the first time you look at it. But if you want more than just a blog, Drupal can expand all the way you think.

What if you want a normal blog as part of the site? For example, it would be linked on the line that says 'User CP', 'FAQ' ect? Or would t have to be at the top where "home" and "chat" is on this page?

You can manually add a link wherever you want in the navbar or header templates to your blog(s).

The site in my signature, www.spacebuffs.com is using Drupal, but I have no blogs going yet.

<a href="http://www.vblogetin.com" target="_blank">www.vblogetin.com</a> is all you need.

It's actually more geared towards member blogs... but I'm also using it for the site news and it's working pretty well.

Subdreamer allows vb integration as well.

<a href="http://vbdrupal.org" target="_blank">vbDrupal</a> may be overkill if all you want is a blog, but if you want the ability to create a whole site (not just a nice face for vb) that integrates the vb userbase into the entire site, then vbDrupal is an awesome product.

Opens up eCommerce options, advanced content/menu/block, and the ability to have different or forum extended themes.

vblogetin is a really nice tool for advanced users, but subdreamer is the nicer of the two if you need a bit of portal like features. vbDrupal is the one I would go for.

Zoints Local includes a blog (not as feature rich as vBlogetin though). See my sig for links.
