Just for the record, the word Blog is an abomination before God and all his little sisters. I dislike it in the strongest possible way. Its sound strips away every connotation and nuance one wants it to convey – there is no prose in it, no music, no literature, no philosophy. It sounds like a less serious form of webserver logfile. It sounds like a euphemism. It is onomatapaeic in a bad way. It sounds like a badly typed hairball. I can’t take it seriously, but it isn’t funny.
Ok, so I don’t have an alternative easy to digest four-letter word for this thing that the unsavvy masses can come to grips with. My question is, do we really need one so badly that we’ll gladly embrace Blog?
