The term "blog" was coined by Jorn Barger in 1997. The short form of the word "blog" was coined by Peter Merholz. Evan Williams of Pyra Labs used "blog" as both a noun and a verb. "To blog", meant "change your blog or post to your blog"). This led to the creation of the term "blogger". Pyra Labs has created Blogger.com which led to the popularization of blogging.
