Blogs - the long and the short of them

Two realtives of mine were talking about blogs - one had seen my signature with blog address at the end of an email and enquired as to what on earth a blog was. My other relative declared something along the lines of "It's an online diary for very sad people who usually write too way too much."

Oops! I am a sad person in that case! Mind you, having said that, this entry is short!
