"Blog" Named Word of the Year

Merriam-Webster Inc. has reported that blog, defined as "a Web site that contains an online personal journal with reflections, comments and often hyperlinks," was one of the most looked-up words on its Internet sites this year. Americans are calling up blogs in droves for information. "Blog" will be a new entry in the 2005 version of the Merriam-Webster Collegiate Dictionary, Eleventh Edition. I wonder if POWERBLOG will be listed?
