I started reading – Donâ??t Call it A Blog! at bavatuesdays and got to thinking. (Which is dangerous at times for me particularly on little/no sleep which the son is insuring these days.)
We should be thinking of the tools formerly know as blogs as personal publishing tools because that is what they are it might be for education, profession or person.  By avoiding the blog tag, we are more likely to avoid the eye glazing and snickers of who wants to know about when I woke up and what I had for breakfast.
