Thought this was pretty cool. Word of the year

My sister asked if I had been to Merriam-Webster's online recently because they have posted a list of their words of the year.  I had not been in a week, so I looked and this is what I found:

Merriam-Webster's Words of the Year 2004

Based on your online lookups, the #1 Word of the Year for 2004 was

Blog noun [short for Weblog] (1999) : a Web site that contains an online personal journal with reflections, comments, and often hyperlinks provided by the writer

That is  pretty cool, huh?
