A picture of 'geek' in his native habitat.

The word blog is an ugly word, and it's a hype word. I don't think it will stand the test of time. Kind of like when I was a kid, everyone 'pegged' their jeans and that was the cool thing to do. I think the word 'blog' will go the way of pegged jeans. In a few years it will fall out of style as a cute word and it will never come back.
It's such a silly word, like so silly that people smile and say it funny when it's spoken out loud, you know?
It's a contraction from 'web log' but that's lame. Like you don't shorten
'captain's log' to 'clog' or 'nslog' right? You don't shorten 'am not' to 'Ain't' right? Ok, scratch that. And 'Vlog' for 'Video Blog', no. You can't even say pronounce that.
How long it will take for the word 'blog' to go completely out of style? I say 4 years tops.
And i'll start here. This is not a 'blog', it's my 'Online Journal'.
Ok?
Blogosphere my ass.
