Stop saying blog

4 comments

That’s right, cause it seems to initiate a series of reactions in human brains that pushes the nerves out and clearly visible on the temples. Also raises thier blood pressure and makes them explode. Boom.

Okay, on topic, blog’s supposedly the 2nd most hated word on the Internet. Thanks to its cliched usage maybe?

Here’s the 10 most hated words:

  • Folksonomy
  • Blogosphere
  • Blog
  • Netiquette
  • Blook
  • Webinar
  • Vlog
  • Social Networking
  • Cookie
  • Wiki

Reuters

So, The new blogosphere which practices folksonomy with its blogs lack netiquette, publish blooks, conduct webinars, start vlogs, go ‘lol’ on social networking, spoil wikis and have cookies?

Must appreciate myself, I’ve left the “Check my blog now!”, “How’s my blog look now? And now?” dialogues long time back :P
