Glossary of blogging

I was watching a program Have I got news for you online and the presenter said that BBC have decided not to call these video clips as Vodcast “because it is too confusing”. Instead, they are calling them Webisodes. http://www.bbc.co.uk/comedy/haveigotnewsforyou/

Internet terminology is changing rapidly and it is confusing even without it changing so often.
Here are some definitions of our online language.
Blogathy
Definition: I do not want to post today and I do not care about it
Blogsnob
Definition: Refusing to respond to blog comments from “not-friends”.
Blogiversary
Definition: Your blog birthday

However, there are other expressions, such as Fisk, meaning:
verb. To deconstruct an article on a point by point basis in a highly critical manner. Derived from the name of journalist Robert Fisk, a frequent target of such critical articles in the blogosphere (qv).
Usage: "Orrin Judd did a severe fisking of an idiotic article in the New York Times today..."
