You would make me happy if you went to this poll and voted to the proper meaning of the word 'blog' - which is to say, a series of posts organized in reverse chronological order (and, pointedly, not a simple post). I know that this is the right meaning because I was around when they were invented, and among the people inventing them. "Every time I hear someone say they're 'writing a blog' or they 'published a blog' when they mean post I still bristle a little inside. It just doesn't sound right."
