What's a blog?


So my friend asked me what a blog is? I gave her the generic answer, that it's derived from the words "web" and "log".

Simple enough.

But then, I started thinking about how something so simple can end up being so much more; blogs can vary in layers. I mean, the web, in and of itself is GI-NORMOUS!!! If you want to find anything, you can find it on the web (That's gotta be the "duh" statement of the year. I mean, you are reading this blog and later, you may check your e-mail and move money out of your savings into your checking account online) and a log/diary/journal can be very something very deep, personal and introspective. The two go together like chocolate and peanut butter! But then, I started thinking about people who lost their jobs over their blogs and how blogs are changing the face of journalism and even the way we percieve the world!

I mean, it's just one syllable.

Wow!

Many CVS stores actually began offering customers the ability to reload their SmarTrip cards back in April, while Giant has only started to test the sales devices at eight area stores. The grocer will likely add 42 more locations later this summer. Not every CVS or Giant has the new SmarTrip reload technology, but a lot of them do. Consult the list of participating stores to find the one closest to you. The change means that SmarTrip users need no longer necessarily wait in line to access Metro's machines insi...
