The Blog Element - Application x has a blog element built into it
Blg-type content, elements, attributes - short blurbs. So will apllications in the future have a blog like element or attribute to them.
Seems a reasonable way to help manage what Dave said kids today call TMI (Too Much Information).
Over at Evhead, he comments about short blurbs,
http://www.evhead.com/ "To be fair, he did say that the type of content that would be delivered wouldn't be traditional television or movies, but more, what I call, "blog-type" content. As in, short blurbs, without a schedule. (I have a theory about the blogization of television—spawned more by TiVo than any of this—but that's a whole 'nother thread.) "
The web wants to be a spontaneus/decentralized communication environment. Like a million news stations covering different events at the same time.
The blog like element helps structure the web so we can follow/tune into as much as we can handle.
There will be applications that will need the blog element. The blog element in that application will be less than 10% of that application and typically not the main focus of the application as it is today. This is how the blog element starts to weave into the fabric of the web.
Interesting to watch the blogger pioneers push the tools forward such as client apps, directory discovery services, aggregation, just in time search engines all with the original spirit of the Internet.
