Merriam-Webster: Blog

Merriam-Webster declared blog the word of 2004. Just one problem, they only have a noun form definition.

A colleague and I often joke about how "verbing weirds language", but the verb form of blog is what's really important. A new activity and mentality of personal, public, short form authoring has taken hold. Not just with words, but with photos, bookmarks, playlists, and listening lists. En masse, people are creating, ripping, mixing, burning, mashing, and blogging a new intertwingly mediasphere. Interesting times ahead.
