What's a weblog?

I don't understand the current media obsession with weblogs, and I am quite tired of reading about them, and tired of the obsessions some people have about trying to straighten other people out about them. Still, after reading my weblog, both this one, and the family one that I am keeping, my mother asked me what a weblog was. I told her, and referred her to the history of weblogs document on the Userland site. Still, I saw the article that Dave Winer pointed to today, What We're Doing When We Blog, and I agree with him - it is a nice concise description of the whole phenomenon. Mom, are you reading? :-)
