Have you read my blog? I have never described what I ate, nor have I
ever mentioned taking a shit, thanks. In fact most don't. They are
very personal things, where people can share their thoughts on
topics. In some ways the stuff I read about and blog about is similar
to the stuff on this list actually. I prefer to read weblogs like Doc
Searls(http://doc.weblogs.com), Dave
Winer(http://www.scriptingnews.com) and Robert
Scoble(http://scoble.weblogs.com) all of which are generally
technical blogs.

Yeah, just read his site!  He's an annoying fuck, plain and simple.

I also agre with Bill, the term "blog" is simply too cute for words. 
Existance of acronym/abbreviation/slang exists does not lead to it 
automaticaly being good.

YMMV = good.
Any pseudo-"hacker" crap, like "warez" is idiotic.
blog = sound I make over the toilet after too many shots of tequila.

No offense to anybody who does it (well, maybe some), but posting a 
long-winded, rambling account of what you ate for breakfast, when you
took a shit, what color it was, and your emotions as having to flush
it 
down the bowl is a really, really weird thing.  It's not writing,
it's 
just stream-of-consciousness verbal diarrhea.

If you have to pee in the electronic stream, do it by contributing 
*useful* information.
