WARNING: Industry Is Blogging these NewsGroups to Impact the Public
Discourse on Matters of Public Health

To : All participants and readers of sci.med, misc.health.alternative,
uk.people.health, talk.politics.medicine

....

None of those groups are blogs.

(you claiming otherwise makes you look like an idiot)


Claiming that the statement inferred that the News Groups are / were
Blogs is outright ignorance.
FYI
Blogging a News Group is posting information on a News Group that one
would expect and see on a personal (or paid) agenda blog.

DDUUUHHHH


That is one of the most idiotic things I have ever read.

The newsgroups are not blogs.


Slow aren't you.
I didn't say they were.

Of course you don't know the origination of the term blog and why certain
personal agenda sites are thus called blogs.

DUUHHHHH

Posting on a newsgroup on Usenet is not blogging.


According to YOU



Actually, according to everyone but you and peatyb.



"Blog" is derived from the term "Web log", basically maintaining a log
book of thoughts on the Internet, in other words an online diary. Usenet
is not the "web", nor is it the Internet. So using the term "blogging"
as a reference to posting on Usenet is outright stupidity.


O.K. Your definition states clearly that blogging on a dial up really
isn't blogging because the person really isn't on the WEB.



This has been mentioned to peteyb, but he is trying to make "all better"
by defining it to what he wants. The world does not work that way. He
is just making himself look like an idiot... and so are you by following
along like a little sheep.


Come back when you ACTUALLY know something about language ant the
INTERNET.


Start with finding out where Blog really came from.
Find out that the term "web" is NOT an acronym.

Usenet is about as close to the full meaning of "web" as it gets.
Posting ideas and propaganda on the Usenet is one step deeper than simply
creating a personally owned site.

You are by NO MEANS an aficionado of the internet. You have your limited
little teen age jargon within which you have created your own definitions.

What do you call it when a person creates a web log within a news group?

What do you call it when a person or persons create a log of information
within a corporate web, not available to the general public? Of COURSE
you know there are such webs comprised of thousands of users.

Bottom line.

PHARMS create there own blog network within individual and groups of News
Groups. They PRETEND to be mere participants.
Gee, sounds like some of the independent blogs where the owner is not
truly revealed.
