My Learning Curve

So I'm getting into this whole blogging world. What a rush, baby! So here are some interesting blogging terminologies for us newbies. Funny and interesting:

Blogosphere
All blogs, or the blogging community. Also called blogistan or, more rarely, blogspace.
I'm in the community now!

Blogsnob
A person who refuses to respond to comments on their blog from people outside their circle of friends.
I'd like to refer to it as preferential treatment

Blogstorm
When a large amount of activity, information and opinion erupts around a particular subject or controversy in the blogosphere, it is sometimes called a blogstorm or blog swarm.
That's something you probably won't see coming from this blogger

Blogoneer
A portmanteau of "blog" and "pioneer", meaning a person who blogs with an expert or pioneering attitude.
Yeah, I'm a newbie....

Boreblogging
Writing about personal matters that are barely interesting even to the writer -- preferably in a slightly bent fashion so as to make it fun to read in spite of the subject matter.
That's the whole point of this post!

Gulog
A portmanteau of "gulag" and "blog". Used when a blog is so dismal and depressing, it's as if it were written in a Soviet labour camp.
Bring on the melancholies!

Koufax
an annual quasi-Liberal webblog award.
Uhhhh?

Vorage
A marriage between the words forage and video defined as "The act of foraging for video on the internet and sharing it with others." Bloggers or vloggers who share streaming or downloaded video content on the web often engage in voraging, scouring search engines and obscure websites to present a curated collection of videos that usually fall within a set theme or editorial perspective.
I'll do this one day....stay tuned.
