"L'étymologie d'un mot révèle parfois des détours inattendus sur le long chemin de ses usages à travers le temps. "Blog" a un de ces longs destins cahoteux, dont la tangente numérique date d'une dizaine d'années" écrit assez joliment Eric Nunès.

Le retour du Marin du web 
Le journal Le Monde s’intéressant au mot Blogue, lui ont trouvé des origines maritimes:
À sa genèse, il ne s’agissait que d’une simple pièce de bois (”log” en anglais). Les premiers marins jetaient un rondin par-dessus bord, à la poupe de leur bateau.
En comptant le temps écoulé pour qu’il s’éloigne, ils estimaient ainsi la vitesse du navire.
Plus tard, les navigateurs affinèrent le système en reliant à une corde des pièces de bois à espaces réguliers. Les “logs” jetés à la mer permettaient de mesurer plus précisément l’allure du bateau. Les données collectées étaient soigneusement consignées sur un carnet de bord, un journal de logs.
Si le log calculait la vitesse d’un navire, le blogue n’en calcule pas moins l’évolution de son capitaine.

It's so nice for me to have found this blog of yours, it's so interesting. I sure hope and wish that you take courage enough to pay me a visit in my PALAVROSSAVRVS REX!, and plus get some surprise. My blog is also so cool! Don't think for a minute that my invitation is spam and I'm a spammer. I'm only searching for a public that may like or love what I write.
Feel free off course to comment as you wish and remember: don't take it wrong, don't think that this visitation I make is a matter of more audiences for my own blogg. No. It's a matter of making universal, realy universal, all this question of bloggs, all the essential causes that bring us all together by visiting and loving one another.
You must not feel obliged to come and visit me. An invitation is not an intimation. Also know that if you click on one of my ads I'm promised to earn 8 cents for that: I would feel happy if you did click it, but once again you're totaly free to do what ever you want. That's the whole beauty of it all.
I think it's to UNITE MANKIND that we became bloggers! Don't see language as an obstacle but as a challenge (though you can use the translater BabelFish at the bottom of my page!) and think for a minute if I and the rest of the world are not expecting something like a broad cumplicity. Remenber that pictures talk also. Open your heart and come along!!!!!
