“Blog” as defined by the OED
February 12th, 2004
The problem with taking a weblog hiatus is that all sorts of interesting things appear online after you have vowed not to post anything. Today’s Oxford English Dictionary (OED) word of the day is “blog”. This was funny to me, particularly, since it has been several weeks since I last checked that link from my own weblog. (At first, it looked like a suggestion instead of a definition) . . . And, being the voracious but closeted dictionary reader that I am, I examined the etymology, date chart, and pronunciation information with much amusement. If you are curious, follow the link before a new word is posted. If you disagree with their definition, read the “Contribute to the OED“ page and submit a form, if appropriate.
