P.S.A.
Nouns defined: Blog, post, comment.
Subsumed is my blog.
What I'm putting up here is a post (or entry).
If people leave messages on a post (not an enabled feature on my blog -- sorry), that's called a comment.
It's kind of amazing the people who confuse the first two, or the last two terms. Who think they put up a new "blog" every day, that other people add "posts" to. It's the verbs that throw them off, I think. Because it is cool to say "I blog daily" or "a commenter posted something to my blog".
But try to keep those three nouns straight: A blog is short for weblog; a post is what the blog's author puts up; and people who don't run the blog and chime in on certain topics leave comments. Hope this helps.
