Blogmaster and blogmistress, you know. Blogosphere, you know. But do you really "speak blog"? According to this wikipedia entry I stumbled across, there's a whole language about blogging (blanguage?) that you can employ to ensure your reputation as a blogging nerd.
For instance, instead of referring to your readers or your audience, you might call them a "blaudience." Or, if you refuse to comment on blogs administered by anyone outside your immediate group of friends, you might be a "blogsnob." Or, in one of my favorite neologisms, if you blog only about adolescent subjects, you might be a "blooger."
So feel free to explore and pepper your conversation with these terms to achieve bloggish fluency, so the next time people start blanguaging, you can blogpicipate.
"My momma didn't raise no dummy, I dug her rap..."
"Cut yoself some slack, Jack..."
"You ain't got no brains, anyhow."
