Stating the obvious (or maybe not). A bit of internet history, the word blog comes from web log, and shorten to take just the last 4 letters.

I like actually taking the full form weblog and nudging the space we get also 'we blog'.

Bit of extra Internet history:

Blogs existed in a previous iteration, before anyone coined the weblog term. The community called them E/N sites.
