@yoz You can carry me aloft through the city any time.
@steverumsby @qmacro @se71 @gilest But I'm not clear where your assertion that they were "originally" called entries comes from. e.g. Blogger in 1999 refers to them as "posts": web.archive.org/web/1999101202… I'm genuinely interested in earlier examples!
@steverumsby @qmacro @se71 @gilest They often were/are called entries, rather than posts. e.g. Movable Type referred to them as entries (maybe still does). But posts seems to be more common these days, and the “blog” vs “blog post” argument would only get confusing for some people if another option was added.
