Answer 1

Your class Blog only contains fields, not properties so the DefaultModelBinder cannot set their values. Change it add getters/setters

public class Blog
{
    public string Name { get; set; }
    public string URL { get; set; }
}

Pay attention at DefaultModelBinder, ModelBinderContext, ModelMetadata. This explains it all.
