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!

White House says it is creating 'very large' dossier on Washington Post journalist and others.

    This is not okay.   For the record, I hate the phrase "This is not okay", but this is NOT okay.  To be fair, I'm certain that he's not the first POTUS to create dossiers on, well, anyone.  But this is an intimidation tactic, plain and simple.  I mean, POTUS is pretty fucking lazy, so there may not be any dossiers.        'Cept, his folks will have to do whatever he tells them to do either because it's their job or because of the allure of power...and maybe out of some sick form of civic duty.        As if gathering info of journalists in order to shut them up is patriotic.        Last I checked, it was the very antithesis of the American way .      November 2nd can't get here soon enough.         This is not a myth, POTUS.
