"Blog" and "moblog" are not transparent words. "Televisor" was not as good a term as "television" or "television set", and so it went away. I expect the same to happen to "moblog", if not "blog", in ten years. Because they're geek words. They're codemonkey words. (I can hear Cory Doctorow yelling, "l337, damnit!") They are crap, artificial, ugly kludges of words.

You want this: blog is a word coined by guys who think diaries are girly things.

It's a nice theory. It still won't make the word go away. So if you loose your hate of it, you should calm down momentarily. Then you can go visit a few web sights.
