Homesteading on the neologosphere

Time I found something to blog about that doesn't begin with me reporting the breakdown of an electrical appliance. I note that, according to the Frog Blogger...

The start of February brings with it many good things:
Digital Strawberry Girl and James.ToString() have joined the blogosphere - welcome, guys!

[Via The Frog Blog]

It also, apparently, brings the very bad thing, that is the unashamed public use of the word 'blogosphere'. It's bad enough to be accused of 'joining the blogosphere', but worse, now I'm posting a blog about a blog post about my blog, thus contributing to the navel gazing self absorption of blogging communities that leads to the creation of terms such as blogosphere in the first place.

My god. I've joined the blogosphere.

Oops.

On the bright side, I'm pleased to note the irony that w.bloggar's sdpelliong dictionary doesn't contain the word 'blog'. There may be hope for us all.

Meanwhile, back at the Frog Blog list of good things February brings:

40 moths!

There's not much that can be added to that. I wonder what led her to start counting them in the first place? And, shouldn't there be more than 40 moths, overall, in the grand scheme of things? Is this a minimalist report on an ecological catastrophe of biblical proportions for mothkind? Will there be more moths in March? We need to be told...

Ok, ok, I've edited it so it at least makes sense. Honestly, there's always one who wants a joke explained and eveyone knows jokes never work _after_ you've explained them.

...and just so's it's clear, I was merely passing on Dan's welcome wishes on my own initial toe into the murky water of blogging: http://blogs.ipona.com/frog/archive/2004/07/06/218.aspx
Blame him for the nasty neologism, not me! :o)

Now don't start blaming ne for using it. That was burrent back in July when frog blog showed up. Six months is a long time for something as temporal as the net.
