Up and Comers

By Dennis McCloskey

I hate the word “blog!” I know what it means (online diary) and where the term comes from (Web log) but it reminds me of “Blah” or “Ugh!”
But I think blogs are here to stay: according to Universal McCann (March 2008) 184 million people worldwide have started a blog, and 346 million people read blogs.

I love blogs. (Just not the word.) And I know I’m going to love being the January Writer-in-Residence (WIR) for OpenBookToronto.com and I am looking forward to writing a blog (not a blah or an ugh) every couple of days during the month.
