The line between 'blogs', which I must admit is a buzzword that annoys the fuck out of me, forums and just plain old fashioned webpages is very blurry to start with. It would be easy to impliment a forum inside a blog (kos for example) and where you draw the line between a newspage and a blog (or just plain 'site') is a fuzzy as hell. Stuff like kuro5hin makes it even messier. In these days of news aggregation it'd take a braver man than I to say what is what.

Get an account on blogger or livejournal(tagline: ask me about my parents divorce) and have fun but for crying out loud don't post about your work in too much detail.

A thread does wolf's writings justice really, it's perfect, easy for us all to check, it's got a permanant URL and it's not wrapped in an ugly blogger/LJ/wordpress/etc interface. Short of a direct XML feed these things don't get any better. We should all go back to using finger, much better idea.
