It could help if we broaden the scope of this proposal. Included User interactive sites (Social Networks) many of them have micro blogging features, and its not that bad of a leap. – Justin Sep 7 '10 at 21:37

I'm afraid I can't agree. It's broad enough as it is and I want it to stay focused on blogging... perhaps the odd question as such will be permitted though. – Noldorin Sep 8 '10 at 21:42

"Followers" is Tumblr and Twitter speak. Outside that walled garden, the term is unspecific, which means that you will get a lot of answers that miss your point. Terms that are specific are (unique) hits, visitors, regulars, RSS subscribers, Tumblr followers, etc. – Kiwi Aug 12 '10 at 22:47

NaGE. Seems odd to be trying to define blog by presentation rather than content. But it's also very subjective in how it is asked. – mfg Feb 8 '11 at 17:03

Is this a subjective question? may be a community wiki type – Sandy Jul 27 '10 at 11:57

@Sandy: Indeed it is, it's effectively asking for recommendations on style. – Noldorin Jul 27 '10 at 12:01

This example is very specific and extremely controversial. – Lennart Regebro Dec 16 '10 at 16:58

You would only go here if you already new what a blog was and had a specific question. Other resources are avbalble for people who need help with the generics. I would suggest a question that is less vague. Like, What is a live blog as compared to twitter?, or What kind of blog services are easiest to use? ... etc. – Justin Sep 8 '10 at 21:28

+1 for off-topic. I don't think this is necessarily a bad question, so long as not every blogging newbie spams the site with such questions. – Noldorin Jul 27 '10 at 8:51

It would be ok if it was asking for specific feedback, but "what do you think..." questions should be off-topic. – BenV Jul 27 '10 at 18:54

	Come on, is this supposed to be a SEO/SEM outlet? – Tadeusz A. Kadłubowski Jul 27 '10 at 8:48
	Down-vote why? Curious that people are mind-reading my intentions for this site. – Noldorin Jul 27 '10 at 8:49
	I have no idea what SEO/SEM mean... – Noldorin Jul 27 '10 at 8:51
	@Noldorin : SEO == Search Engine Optimization, I think SEM == Search Engine Monetization – warren Aug 4 '10 at 18:41
