I think the term "blog editor" might have fallen out of favour since Blood's article was published, as the more widely-used term today is definitely "blogger". Mind you, a "blog editor" might be an important role for multi-author blogs, but I don't think that was Blood's intention when she used the term! And I like your example of using a blog as a collaborative tool at work - they really do work in such instances! Hi Vicki – yes, I’d consider a “blogger” and a “blog editor” one in the same.

I had always thought of blogs as a means for people to disseminate their ideas and reinforce their own views, but I never thought about the effect of keeping a journal which records thoughts that most of the time one just forgets and thereby coming to better know yourself. I hope I don't find out that I'm a complete moron. I also liked Rebecca Blood’s point about self reflection through blogging.
