I wasn't sure whether to post this here or in the blogging section.
Anyway, I hate the word "blog". To me it has a horrible sound to it, and sounds too much like "bog", which either means toilet or "an area of wet muddy ground that is too soft to support a heavy body".
I don't even think we need it. There are plenty of other words that can be used instead: article, post, news, updates, journal, diary. They've got it all covered, they all sounds a lot better, and none of them can be accidentally misheard as bog. There was no need to invent this new word, which was really just a joke anyway because it was deliberately mistaking "weblog" for "we blog" rather than "web log".
