Wouter Groenveld has published his blog in book form, and (of course) blogged about the making of Brain Baking DX. As the essential characteristic of hypertext is non-linearity (read: there are jump links, lots of them, and they tend to break all the time) adapting a personal website/blog into printed form is not exactly straightforward. Also, with a sizable archive, topical curation might become an issue as well. While preservation of the web at large is still an open problem, this is a particular charming local solution (by method of reducing it to a solved problem, because for preserving cultural heritage in book-bound form, the national libraries indeed do have their shit together). I'm only half a decade into blogging, and a less productive writer than Wouter, but at some point in time I would like to emulate the idea for this site as well.
