What does "blog" mean? I have asked many and no one seems to know. I have read some blogs and they seem ok, so I thought I might do a little research. Here's what I found out...
~American Heritage Dictionary says, n. A weblog
~Webster's New Millennium says, n. an online diary; a personal chronological log of thoughts published on a Web page; also called Weblog, Web log.
~Online Etymology Dictionary says, blog 1998, short for weblog (which is attested from 1994, through not in the sense 'online journal), from (World Wide)Web + log.
Joe Bloggs (c.1969) was British slang for "any hypothetical person" (cf. U.S. equivalent Joe Blow)
I also found a place that had "we blog" instead of "web log". OK, so I guess this is the beginning of my blog. I guess I am "any hypothetical person" at this point. I know, you are thinking, I sure hope this one gets better!...me too!!!
