Here for the first time, in our fabulous Online PR and Social Media Glossary (phew), are our slightly tongue-in-cheek definitions for all the latest buzzwords doing the rounds. (And writing them kept the immediate future team amused for at least a whole afternoon!) Any definitions you want to add? Email us at info@immediatefuture.co.uk | |

| Term | Definition |
| Biz Blogs | Blogs that are written by companies and organisations are known as business blogs and are a great way to communicate with your customers, partners and employees. Business blogs are “good for business” according to Bill Gates. So it must be true. |
| Bliki | A blog that can be edited by readers or an agreed group of collaborators is known as a bliki – a combination of a blog and a wiki. It is also a fall-down-drunk cocktail made with Vodka, Rum and grenadine. And don’t ask us how we know this. |
| Blog | Although now being used by businesses, a weblog or blog is more often than not a frequently updated personal online journal kept by a blogger. Entries or posts are in reverse chronological order and can be insightful, witty and philosophical. Or maybe not. |
| Blog digest | A blog digest reports on, and summarises, other related blogs on a daily basis. A blog digest can be really useful if you’re in a bit of a rush. |
| Blog storm | A blog storm or blog swarm is when bloggers in the blogosphere write thousands of posts about a subject which then forces the story into the mainstream media. Never underestimate the power of the blogger. |
