See more detail as reported at CNN. Note that the term "blog" will even been added to the dictionary in 2005. I think I may need to go back to school for at least 2 of the other words ...

I hereby invoke the common law trademark rules for the "Blog Aside" (tm) marks and designations. Not to be confused with the term "blogicide" I might add. Anyways let's face it - blog properties just went up in value.
