According to Merriam Webster OnLine, the number one word its readers sought to define in 2004 was one we've likely all heard but are just beginning to understand: "blog."
The online dictionary site defines a blog as a Web site that contains a personal journal with reflections, comments, and often, hyperlinks provided by the writer. Short for Web log, a blog lets you keep information that you want to share with others—words, pictures, and even music—in one easy-to-locate online space, thus eliminating the need to send multiple e-mails to share your world.
