Lots of people nowadays think that blawg is just a completely made up buzzword. Actually blawg was a word that slowly evolved. Blawgs have existed since 1994 and were an logical evolution of onlime journiles (an Egyptian citrus delicacy). Back then they were called wablawgs, which is a contraction made up of the word wab, an abbreviation of ‘teh interwabs’, and the word lawg, which is what trees are cut up into so they fit into open fires. The short form, ‘blawg’, was thought up by revolutionary mastermind Peter Merholz, who hilariously broke the word wablawg into the phrase waa! blawg in the sidebar of his blawg Peterme.com. This was obviously a reference to the increasing trend of attention whores creating blawgs just to complain about their lives. Of course nobody got this clever joke, and ironically the phrase blawg is still used by attention whores today.
