Blurgh-osphere

Tee hee! Someone else hates the web-ized words I hate! In fact... quite a lot of someone elses...


'Blog', 'cookie', 'wiki' top list of hated Internet words: poll - Yahoo! News

Topping the list of words most likely to make web users "wince, shudder or want to bang your head on the keyboard" was folksonomy, a term for a web classification system.

"Blogosphere", the collective name for blogs or online journals, was second; "blog" itself was third; "netiquette", or Internet etiquette, came fourth and "blook", a book based on a blog, was fifth.

"Cookie", a file sent to a user's computer after they visit a website, came in ninth, while "wiki", a collaborative website edited by its readers, was tenth.
