Pet Peeve of the Day

March 27, 2006 by Pamela Parker

Ok, it’s finally reached the point where I am going to burst if I don’t post about this. I keep hearing people saying (the most recent being the person I’m overhearing behind me at this conference) that they are writing “a blog” about something, when what they really mean is that they are writing “a blog post” or “a blog entry.” The site itself, or the sum total of blog posts/entries, is called a blog, while each discrete content element is called an “entry” or a “post.” *Whew* Glad I got that off my chest. A sign of the mainstreaming of blogging?
