The Blog People Are Coming!

Terms which we unfortunately seem to be stuck with, or which have yet to be replaced by better options:
  • Blog (both noun and verb -- the latter being the more unfortunate).
  • Blogosphere, and its attendant culture.
  • Biblioblogosphere (the blogosphere of the librarians -- sounds like a subtitle of a B movie sci fi epic).
  • Web 2.0 - or Social Computing
  • Library 2.0 - or "Next Gen Libraries & Librarians"
  • ...Add your own

Over at the ALA Techsource blog, Michael Stephens takes a look back at a relatively recent online fracas in the ALA (American Library Association) community regarding outdated attitudes towards blogs and blogging.
