  • Blognologoy - the technology behind blogsites including the different Blog applications, XML/RSS feed technology, and Wiki technology (not really the same but we often integrate them into our Blogsites)
  • Blogiste - a collection of Blogs and Wiki sites

  • Blog of Blogs - a collection of Blogs structured together like a single Blog
  • Blogtastic - an enthusiastic exclamation when something works well!

      Mental blog… when you have a blog but don’t post for ages… as in the phrase

      “I’ve got a blog… it’s a mental blog, mental…”

      Blogarithm (n.)

      The act of regularly posting in a blog. In this definition ‘regular’ means that the frequency of posts is blogarithmic (q.v.)

      Blogarithmic (adj.)

      Used to describe the frequency of blogging by a regular blogiste (q.v.). When starting a blog, the frequency is greater than it is subsequently. Taken over the first period of time (six weeks say), the frequency is twice as great as over the second period of time.

      Oh, I thought a blogiste was someone who blogged… maybe that’s an alternative definition… or did you mean blogsite?

      Anyways…

      Soviet blog (n.)

      Centrally controlled blog, seemingly open to all in the community to contribute to but used for centralist gain. Hmm…
