Can You Name that Blog
in 30 minutes or less? It took me close to two hours to come up with something other than "My Life", "Life as X Knows It", or that all-time classic "X's Blog" :) I did try to come up with some meaningful names to describe how it would be my daily emotional outlet (Emotional Catharsis). But sadly, it was already taken. Then I tried to be witty... well, let's just say that didn't work out well either.
So I decided to find a name that captured both the addiction and the mass interest taken in blogging (I felt anyway ;). That's how I came up with ChronicBlogger. It has the word blog but in an uncommon way. Also I couldn't find any other blogs with that title (Yes! Originality at last!).
It's interesting to find out how people named their blog. Here is an interesting post which talks about the Top 10 Words used in blog titles: http://elliottback.com/wp/archives/2004/12/21/what-do-you-call-your-blog/.
Funnily enough, out of the blogs surveyed at the time, only 9.986% contain the word 'blog'. The author also suggested that
'any blog named, “My blog/journal/weblog with daily
world news and thoughts from life!” will be a smash hit.'
