- 'Oh, I need to update my online blog.'
blog
noun; clipping
an online journal or diary where people can say whatever they feel like My suitemate was commenting on how he had not updated his journal that is posted on the internet. 'Blog' is a technological term that is a clipping of the word 'weblog.' I suppose people use blog instead because it is only one syllable and easier to say quickly than 'weblog.' This word can also be zero derived to form the verb form blog, meaning to write things in your online journal. 'to blog'
Etymology : 'web' (an interconnection of many things) + 'log' (an account of many objects)
