BLOG - a noun


Thursday night, we are on our way home from a Christian Life Program of my chapter (nc5), and a kind hearted man offered a ride home to us..KUYA SANTI! Kewl...then i mentioned to him that i find the word "BLOG"  kinda weird but yet interesting, i even attempted to look for its meaning in the dictionary but it always slips my mind...but nwei, Kuya Santi and to all my friends out there here goes some Webster's Job!






















Main Entry:  blog
Part of Speech:  noun

A four-letter term that came to symbolize the difference between old and new media during this year's presidential campaign tops U.S. dictionary publisher Merriam-Webster's list of the 10 words of the year.


 


 


Get it? Perhaps someone will be composing song like this..hahaha..just like with the song "DIARY" ...arrggh..what am i thinkin this past few days.....The Internet is becoming the epochal communication and entertainment platform that the dot-commers envisioned—it just took longer than most of them thought.It all used to be so easy; the adage went "never pick a fight with anyone who buys ink by the barrel." But now everyone can get ink for free, launch a diatribe, and - if what they have to say is interesting to enough people - expect web-enabled word of mouth to carry it around the world. Unlike earlier promises of self-publishing revolutions, the blog movement seems to be the real thing. Let's BLOG!!!!
